Yes: There have been several studies documenting that babies can hear from inside the womb. The aural (hearing) function develops roughly between 20 and 24 weeks.

Yes: Many studies have shown that they can hear from the womb and data shows variations in personalities depending on the type of music exposed to in utero.

I had a partial hysterectomy +- 3 years ago. 3-5cm of my uterus removed due to non stop bleeding. Therefore I can no longer have babies. With today's technology. Is this able to be repaired? Stitched up and sealed to be able to have kids again?
