When I was pregnant it was so important for me to feel close to my baby. It was such a beautiful and yet stressful time for me. I wanted to make sure I ate the right foods, took the right vitamins and did everything I could to create the perfect little being.

One thing I wish I would have done more is play music to my baby in the womb. Studies have been done to show that around 23 weeks your little one can respond to outside noises they hear. Therefore, music is a great way to create a soothing and calming environment for your precious little baby.

Ritmo, a recent PTPA Award Winner is the perfect way to deliver musical sounds to your womb. The Ritmo is an advanced sound system for you and your baby. By connecting your MP3 player to the Ritmo audio controller you can safely and effectively play music to your unborn child. Here are the features you will find with the Ritmo:

On-the-go, as you grow: Lightweight, elasticized, state-of-the-art fabric provides gentle but effective support.

Fashionable and adjustable: Stylish and streamlined design.

Washable, quality fabric: Specially woven Spandex material looks great after multiple cleaning cycles.

Hands-free experience: Convenient side pockets hold the RitmoTM Audio Controller and your personal MP3 player

Ritmo Connect: and Ritmo Pregnancy are the perfect pair, making it easy for you to share the voices of loved with your baby in the womb.

Acoustic technology: Delivers high quality sound to the the youngest listeners.

Controlled sound for baby: We take care of the baby’s safe listening, continuously adjusting the volume to optimal fetal levels.

4-Speaker Sound: Two separate stereo speaker sets deliver your sound to baby in an optimally balanced and effective way.

Connect to your MP3 player: So your baby hears the sound and music that you love to listen to.

I have seen firsthand how music can soothe a newborn. While I did not use any type of product to deliver music to my baby in the womb, I did sing a lot to them. From the first time I sang a certain song to them, I could see that it was like they already knew it. It would stop them from crying almost immediately.

I did a quick video showing you a little about the Ritmo.  If you would like to see it,  One of my favorite features of the Ritmo is Ritmo Connect. Today there are so many families spread out all over the world. Ritmo Connect makes it possible for out of town family to be a part of your babies life even before they are born. I love anything that is about bringing families together, especially during a time when you need them the most.

If you are expecting or know of someone that is expecting, point them in the direction of the Ritmo. It is the perfect product for any soon-to-be mom.

Watch for some exciting Postnatal additions that will be coming to Ritmo in the Spring 2011. The new applications will enable Ritmo to be used throughout baby’s early years.
