A major complaint I hear from birthing women who want to use headphones to listen to music or a relaxation recording (and in one case a salacious romance thriller audiobook) during birth is that the headphones hurt their often sensitive ears.
Solution?
I’ve been using a product called ZenBands (that I was not paid to promote) with my last few birth doula clients and they’re loving it. The ZenBand is a soft headband with flat builtin speakers, so you can have your private listening experience without sticking something in your ears. Check it out 🙂
