Sound transmission to the human foetus through the maternal abdominal wall.
TLDR
In this paper, sound transmission to the human foetus through the Maternal Abdominal Wall was studied and sound transmission was found to be beneficial for human foetal development.Abstract:

The development of human fetal hearing.
TL;DR: Blink-startle responses to vibroacoustic stimulation were monitored ultrasonically in human fetuses of known gestational age and were present consistently after 28 weeks, providing a foundation for diagnosing deafness and recognizing aberrant responses antenatally.

Ontogeny of Structure and Function in the Vertebrate Auditory System
TL;DR: The vertebrate auditory system is one of the primary sense modalities, involving both a highly specialized peripheral receptor organ and a complex set of central pathways.

Development of fetal hearing
Peter Hepper,B S. Shahidullah +1 more
TL;DR: The sensitivity of the fetus to sounds in the low frequency range may promote language acquisition and result in increased susceptibility to auditory system damage arising from exposure to intense low frequency sounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fetal sensory competencies
TL;DR: This article aims at reviewing data concerning the presence of potential sensory stimulation in the fetal milieu, the sequential functional development of the sensory systems and physiological and behavioral responses of fetuses to various types of stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time course of axonal myelination in the human brainstem auditory pathway
TL;DR: The cotemporality in appearance of myelin, reflex responses, and evoked responses supports the idea that the 26th to 28th gestational weeks are a critical period in the onset of human central auditory function.

Measurement of tone response by the human foetus. a preliminary report.
TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary report on the measurement of tone response by the human foetus is presented. But this report is limited to a single segmentation of the human tone response.

Attempt of determining the fetal reaction to acoustic stimulation.
TL;DR: The authors examined reaction of rhythm of the fetus heart in 32 pregnant women in the last month of pregnancy, after tone giving of 1000 and 2000 c/s and of intensity 100 db for 5 sec.
