These womb dolls are creeping me out, and I am not sure why. I must be the only one disturbed too, as these are a sell out hit.

[Takara Tomy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/punirunes) created two dolls in the forms of Mickey and Minnie Mouse which recreate the sounds of the womb. Apparently, they are designed to help your new born baby settle into a [normal sleep cycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personalized-sleep-tracks) due to the [familiar sensory stimulation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-first-tonies).

So, what sound to expect? Well, the website says they "play internal melodies and sounds that recreate what they heard before birth, such as the heartbeat and bloodflow."
