hearing loss
I had my baby boy 12/19! asked:


Hello! I’m 17 weeks pregnant and a professional drummer. I will be going on tour for 2 weeks in Europe. So, I will be 18 and 19 weeks pregnant. I am nervous about all the noise from the drums (especially the snare drum that is the drum closest to my stomach) can cause hearing loss for my unborn child.
Tell me your thoughts on this. I will not be playing more than 30 minutes at a time.

What hearing aids would you suggest for a singer in a band?

I recently joined a rock band as lead vocalist. I am having trouble hearing myself during practice with the drums, guitar and bass being so loud. Can anyone suggest an item to help me hear myself better without disturbing the other members?
