Does your baby respond to sounds?

My little guy gets reactive to loud music. We were at a football game and anytime the crowd noise or music got loud he started going wild.

He also is really reactive to my husband's voice. He will be sleeping for awhile then once my husband gets home from work, he's all excited and won't calm down until he comes up and talks to him. He calms down after that, it's adorable. He moves towards his voice too when we're just sitting and talking.

We watched the movie Rock of Ages a couple weeks ago and Baby A would go on a kicking frenzy any time a song came on. Obviously he has good taste in music.

Not at all with either one of us. This baby apparently likes to ignore us which does not bode well for us. Although it's hilarious when baby is kicking up a storm and then when H puts his hand on my belly to feel, baby very suddenly stops. This happens almost all the time.

No, but I haven't really tried.

The only thing I have noticed that makes him kick is when I am leaning over the table while doing my puzzle. I think he gets squished or something.

Mine overreacts when I lean forward too. It can be a bit ridiculous how aggressive he gets kicking me from that alone, lol.

I sorta feel bad, but then I'm like, get outta here with you bossing me around already, you aren't even out of the womb yet.

yes. if h talks to my belly, specifically into my belly button (lol i assume it's thinner there? i have no idea) she will kick back to his voice. she doesn't respond the same to me, presumably because she's used to my voice and it's not as close. also, if we're watching a movie in the basement and something SUPER loud happens in the movie, she'll move all around and kick for a few seconds.

I felt like the Grinch with my heart growing three sizes reading this (heart)

We were watching fireworks on the 4th of July. The first one that went off must have scared him because he jolted at the boom.

This baby girl does. She kicks a lot when I play music on my phone by my belly.

BUT
When I am at work (I work with infants) she is still the entire time I am there. It's like she hears them all crying and being loud and she is afraid or something. The minute I sit in my car to go home for lunch or at the end of the day she starts going again. It's weird. We have a kid who screams a lot, so I don't blame her lol

If I lay on my left side (which my Ob says to do) she freaks out until I move. She also kicks a lot if I put a warm magic bag on my back.

When it's really loud she actually STOPS moving. H and I are very calm and quiet people so I think she might like it quiet like we do

She seemed to be dancing yesterday to an Elton John song; it was really cute. I also think she reacts to H's voice, but I need to test that out some more. And the little bugger totally usually stops kicking once I put my hand on my belly, too - she does what she wants!
