After my last post discussing the the considerations Deaf parents should consider before having a child. I wanted to know if there are any tests that can be done during pregnancy to determine if thier child will be born deaf or hearing. I know after labor , they take the newborn and run several test to see if the baby's lungs . ears, and eyes are okay. I wonder if they can test the child while it is still in the whom. I remember with my daughter , I would play music and I would feel her kick harder and stronger depending on the beat.I wonder if this because they can hear the music or feel the sound waves. I found an short article dicussing a prenatal study on Deaf parents and Parents of one Deaf child. I found the article interesting because the parents were able to figure out if thier child would be born with hearing impairments.
