Go to a rock concert during pregnancy

Going to an occasional Rock Concert is fine, but I wouldn't recommend doing it every night. It's hard to measure exactly how much Noise can affect a developing baby.

One study showed that women who work eight hours a day around very Loud Noise (at levels so Loud that Hearing Protection is needed) run a higher risk of delivering babies with hearing loss.

Another study looked at whether Amniotic fluid buffered or Amplified Sound. It turns out that low-pitched sounds (like those from a bass guitar) are slightly amplified by Amniotic fluid.

As the pitch gets higher, though, the fluid dampens the sound. (This study also found that Amniotic fluid amplifies a mother's Voice by about 5 decibels but dampens other Voices.)
