The unborn baby begins
to recognize all five senses inside
of the womb after the twenty-fourth
week when the brain cells start to be
formed. Four of the five senses such
as Seeing, Hearing, Tasting & Smelling
are directly felt by the baby, but Tactual
sense is indirectly felt.
In general,
the sense of sight & hearing sense
can be felt in the 6th month of pregnancy
and Taste & Olfactory sense felt
in the 7th month of pregnancy (Fetal
Medicine, F.A.Chervenak, 1999) |

| According to the study
at Obstetrics & Gynecology Dept
of Florida Medical College, a pregnant
woman¡¯s voice that was measured outside
her womb at 72db increased by 5.2db
to 77.2db inside the womb. A man¡¯s outer
voice at 90db decreased by 2.1db in
the womb, while a woman¡¯s voice decreased
by 3.2db in case of woman¡¯s voice. It
shows therefore a fetus hears its mother¡¯s
voice (Sound Levels in the Human Uterus,
Richards DS, 1992) |

| It was discovered that
proper sound stimulation increases the
Cerebral Glucose-Oxygen Quotient (Sound
Stimulation increase the Cerebral Glucose:
Oxygen Quotient in Fetal Sheep, Chao
CR, 1993). The fact that the voices
of parents help development of the fetal
brain is closely related to this physiological
change. |

Up to 90% of nerve tissues
of the fatal brain are developed and
connected through the sense of hearing,
which means that this important sense
is an energetic source in activating
the brain (Symposium on Fetal Education,
Prof. Moon-Young, Kim, Medical College
of Sungkyunkwan Univ., 1999). Comparing
the number and time of fetal respirations
to the number and time of fetal movements
after letting the fetus listen to various
kinds of music, the result is that the
fetus¡¯s respiring period remarkably
increased when a pregnant woman listens
to the preferable music. Also, it shows
that the periods are not affected by
the type of music. As a result, the
fetus¡¯s movement is surely influenced
by music, but it is necessary that a
pregnant woman listen to what she likes
regardless of the type of music.
A fetus can easily learn and memorize
when its auditory reactions are repeated
and become familiar. For example, if
the mother enjoys watching a particular
soap opera during her pregnancy, her
baby will make a pleasant response to
the sound of the same TV drama after
birth (Symposium on Prenatal Education,
Prof. In-Kyung, Sung, Catholic Medical
College, 1999)

| PreIn the baby¡¯s brain,
about 90 percent of development and
connection of nerve organ is made from
its auditory sense.(Prof. Mun-Young
Kim, Medical School of Sungkyunkwan
University of Korea, 1999). |
