wireless headphones for labour?

Does anyone have any opinions or advice on what wireless headphones to get for labour? To play tracks off my iphone?

Last birth was at the MLU, i had the speaker on my iphone playing spa music the whole way through and it was a great help to zone into that and ignore any other noises

This time i'll be at hospital, and i guess they wont appreciate music blaring out on the ward!

I'm useless at tech though, so perhaps someone here has suggestions?

Airpods are good

I had these for a hospital stay. They were brilliant. Small enough to be comfy but not too small to be easily lost.

I am planning on using my husbands wireless large headphones. They are Bose headphones. I figured I wanted them to be comfortable and I find wearing in ear ones can get a bit uncomfortable over a long period of time

I can't see what the difference is between the labour ward and an MLU with regard to playing music? Unless you're expecting to be on the maternity ward first?

@Spam88

My local MLU doesn’t have a hospital alongside and is very quiet indeed - it’s common to be the only one in labour there, so I guess they never felt the need to tell me to turn the music down?

I’m guessing hospital could potentially be a lot busier though, and I don’t want to annoy anyone!
