Gone are the days of turning the volume up on your stereo or placing headphones on your belly in the hope your baby might be enjoying some of your favourite tunes before entering the world.

At least, that’s if you’re open to using this nifty little device instead.

Introducing the ‘Baby-pod’, a tampon-shaped speaker which is inserted into the vagina and helps unborn babies hear music.

According to the company’s research, the small device stimulates neural development in the fetus through music.

It’s inserted the same way you would a tampon, then attach the audio cord to your ipod or phone and you’re good to go.

The price tag is $150, which isn’t cheap, and some have warned against using a speaker so close to your bub’s developing ears.

When we shared a video of the device on Facebook it certainly got some mixed responses.

“Don’t mums to be have enough rummaging in their vaginas by various people and objects through the course of their pregnancy,” one person pointed out.

“That is the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard of,” another thought.

People also pointed out that babies have been proven to be able to hear things from the outside world already.

“But why? We already know they can hear through the belly. Just seems a pointless infection risk,” was one response.

“Pretty sure they can hear music without the need to shove a speaker up your bits.”
