Hi

First time poster here. I am probably worrying unnecessarily but my google search isn’t giving me any helpful answers!!

I’m 25 weeks pregnant and was in a taxi the other day. The taxi driver popped the radio on not realising it was on the loudest possible volume! He quickly turned it down but it was so startling like an explosion. Bump was also startled and had a real jump. I am probably being unnecessarily anxious but as the sound was so loud and sudden, I am worried that I have caused baby hearing loss. Any mums on here who can help explain effects of noise on baby? Thank you!

Thanks for all the reassurance!! It is easy to get worked up and just worry about every little thing!
