A Canadian design student said he has created an MP3 player that wraps around an expecting mother's waist to play music for the unborn child. Geof Ramsay said his invention, the BLABY, is comprised of the MP3 player, a contoured belt and three speakers that broadcast the vibrations from the chosen music into the womb, Britain's The Daily Telegraph reported Friday. Scientists have talked about music being a catalyst for an unborn child's mental growth for years, Ramsay said.
