Abstract

An apparatus for delivering sound to a fetus through a pregnant woman's abdomen. In a preferred embodiment, the apparatus utilizes limited-volume, modular sound transmitters encased in housings which are affixed on their undersides with a compound that safety adheres each transmitter to any appropriate location on the outer wall of the abdomen. The transmitters and their respective housings are connected to each other electronically at one end by an audio plug, not unlike commercial headphones, where is situated an additional audio jack meant for the purpose of simultaneous listening. An external case holds the housings together when not in use thereby protecting the adhesive compound from the elements. Alternatively, the apparatus may include shells adapted to receive commercially available sound transmitters such as ear buds.
