belly stereo

About a week ago I got my Bellysonic speakers. It's basically a fuzzy fleece fanny pack with built in speakers. The iPod goes in the pocket and plugs into the speakers. A splitter allows me to listen along. Here I am rocking out to Baby Einstein's Brandenburg Concerto.I started using it at 19 weeks. We have a ton of baby music loaded on the iPod. I listen an hour a day, either in the afternoon or at night before bedtime.

What you don't see is that even though I look huge, this thing is still too loose. I am using an industrial strength rubber band (like the ones on a stalk of broccoli) to make a pony tail out of the belt in back, to shorten it.

Overall, I like the contraption. It freaks me out that the iPod gets really warm in there and fries the baby for an hour. So, I take it out of the pocket when I am sitting still.

Merle likes to listen, too.
