People are more likely to cry when they hear my singing voice.
But now science says otherwise.
A study carried out by Journal
Woman and Birth found that those who sang lullabies to their unborn child were less likely to have neonatal crying episodes in the first month.
Over 170 women pregnant women took part in the study which followed the women up until three months after birth.
And the results were significant. In the same singing group, the incidence of neonatal crying episodes in the first month was 18.5% compared with those babies who were not serenaded (28%)
Mums who had sung to their bumps reported better bonding with their newborns and much less stress.
Colic was also reduced (dramatically) in the singing group.
There was never a better chance to crack out the karaoke machine this weekend and bump up the jam....
