Interventions

OTHERWomb sound recordings

Womb sounds will be chosen from commercially available (Amazon) womb recordings using a recording that most closely resembles the womb including maternal heart rate, fetal heartbeat, respiratory sounds, bowel "popping" sounds and frequency spectra as described by Parga, Daland 2018 et al.
