Anyone know how loud is too loud for unborn babies?

I'm kicking myself - am 30 weeks pregnant and went to a gig this week without thinking about volume levels. The band itself wasn't that loud, but the support act was. We didn't stay to hear them above 10 minutes, but it was loud enough that I could feel my bump vibrating. Am I likely to have damaged the baby's hearing?

no.

its very muffled in there.

I think it's very unlikely

I went to a Kings of Leon gig when I was 21 weeks pg. Both support & main act were so loud my ears rang for a week.
DS's hearing is fine

I went to see a film when I was in my third trimester with dd. I'm sure the music was no where near as loud as at at gig but dd was kicking me in time with the beat for about 15 minutes during one action scene. I felt quite battered after that.

Thanks for all the reassurance - hadn't been to a gig for quite a while, so had forgotten the noise factor. Baby is carrying on in there as if nothing had happened, it's just his/her parents being neurotic!

Oh - and Ds LOVES the Kings of Leon - he dances whenever he hears them

The band we went to see was Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, and I will be so happy if the baby likes them - I think they're fantastic! I'll be watching for signs of recognition.
