Hearing aids won't help if you only knew silence - they merely amplify the sound. She must have been able to hear before, just everything was very quite.
As an older guy with a moderate hearing problem, I received hearing aids about a year and a half ago. I remember hearing birds chirping that I hadn't heard in over fifty years. I was in a membership warehouse where I bought them and heard the shopping carts being wheeled throughout the store. I had not heard that clanging/rattling noise for so long. I can only imagine what this little girl was thinking when hearing her mother and father's voices. I'm so happy for her.
rand49er... I just got mine 2wks ago. Suddenly, I discovered that my roommate hasn't been mumbling really low after all, lol. I hope this little girl is enjoying her new world!
Noooooo I'm sayin they CD play her prince,💜 or Bach,🎼🎼 or the Beatles, Michael🎶🎶 Jackson🕺🕺, Whitney🏆🎁, Barbara✨ Streisand ..🎤 The Rolling Stones🎸 ... AL GREEN..🎵🎵. ANITA BAKER .📻 🎶🎶🎶🎶✝️💚🤦🎶😂 🕊️ 🕊️
My daughter is profoundly deaf - was diagnosed at 3 days old - has had hearing aids since about 6 weeks- she is amazing - unless she knows she’s done something she shouldn’t have .... hard to tell someone off once they remove their ears and walk away saying “ can’t hear you daddy” 🤷♂️🤷♂️ - she’s too damn cute for me 🤣🤣🤣
It probably hurt at first. Imagine hearing nothing then, all of a sudden.......... BAM. Noise. Wow. I just found this video again after making this comment 10 months ago. Totally forgot I ever even watched it. Imagine my surprise when I see the top comment is.... mine?
Ive heard it being compared to sleeping quietly in a dark room and it suddenly being full of shouting, loud bangs and flashing lights. Any person would feel a moment of panic.
She wouldn’t have heard nothing because hearing aids just amplify the sound that you can already hear so she could hear before but it’s would have just been very quiet.
My neighbor got cochlear implants in high school. He either turned them off for good or got them removed. Idk. I do know high school was unbearable for him after he could hear and He didn’t want to go to a deaf school.
I was once in a band playing an outdoor concert one Saturday afternoon. There was a group of teenagers sitting in front of the stage but I was puzzled that they had their backs to us, facing away from the stage. As we started to play, I realised what it was about. One of their number, an older adult was sitting in front of them, facing the stage and signing to them. The kids were all deaf, and could feel the beat from the speakers. The adult facing them was signing the song lyrics and my MC comments. Even my lame jokes. About halfway through our set I mentioned to the crowd what was going on in front of us and almost instantly the teenagers all turned around to face us and stood up and waved. Then they sat down again and enjoyed the rest of the concert. It was a magic moment for us. Never before had I played music for deaf people.
As someone who has worn hearing aids for 11 years now, I can recall the first time they were turned on at the Dr's office. Everything was extremely loud, even every-day background noise. The air conditioning, the sound of my shoes on the carpet, touching my shirt - It was like I had superhuman hearing. Your brain takes a little while to get used to hearing and toning everything down. All that noise was probably a little too much for her... Super cute kid, I hope she's adjusting well.
Poor thing she is so overwhelmed in her new world of hearing. I think people should only say a word or two and let her adjust to her new sensations. She is so lovely and sweet. The best gift she could ever get!
They should start out with low sounds after putting in the hearing aids if she has never heard before. Because it looks like to me that her mom's voice is too loud for her.
@MIKE HUNT nothing wrong with slowly introducing sound. It will actually blind you if you look directly at bright light after being in pitch darkness for a while, hence why light is slowly introduced. why can't it be the same when in cases of pitch silence?
I think it hurts to hear in the beginning. All these sounds and high pitched distractions. If you think about it we are used to hearing layers of sounds and audio cues from the day we’re born. It would be overwhelming to hear for the first time. Her little eardrums have to get used to soundwave vibrations. She’s absolutely darling and precious.
Too many people talking at once not only Hurts but is very confusing. The woman with the little girl voice ( her mother?) needs to speak in a "normal" voice. The high pitch would be annoying.
Vinay Seth no they cry because the lungs are closed to stop fluid from getting in the lungs. Babies get oxygen by the umbilical cord not lungs while they are in the womb and as open it hurts. Nature way teaching how to breath.
No kidding. I know that this must have been emotional for the parents too, but for Heaven's sake, QUIET DOWN! Surely they had been told not to be loud!
Yeah, her mother just couldn’t help it, she was so excited and wanted to be loving. Then the cute girl couldn’t communicate but you could tell by her reaction that it hurt.
@@Mote78 Ik like everyone is coming at the parents but people have to realise how excited they were that their daughter could hear them and they probably stopped it soon after the excitement passed at first
What's adorable, about a terrified little girl? (She was definitely adorable) but the situation was a chaotic mess, that is not how it's normally done. She should only hear one voice at a time for her little brain to adjust the loader sounds. Poor beautiful little soul
Talking softer with lower tones is helpful. I know most people tend to use a high pitched voice with kids out of excitement, but it can be unpleasing to the ear at first. The little girl is ADORABLE ☺ God bless this family.
My mom has hearing aids and high pitches can be especially painful, its too bad the doctor/nurse didn't ask the mom and dad to speak low and quiet so their daughter wouldn't be so distressed and overwhelmed.
It’s nice she’s got hearing aids that work but I wouldn’t call her reaction adorable. I’d call it confused and a bit distressed. But she’ll get used to it quickly. Hope she’s now enjoying them and having fun
I hope her parents understand that she's not "fixed" and that they'll all still need to learn Sign Language in order to maintain her level of communication. Too many parents rely on the hearing aids, don't learn or encourage sign, and then get mad when the hearing loss gets too much and they can't properly communicate.
I'd try to be has gentle with my voice as possible of this was my child hearing for the first time 😅 poor girl. She's handling it very well but definitely overwhelmed.
im amazed that the doctor doesnt say "now DONT go all squeaky bubbly high pitched baby talk when we switch them on , and please, one person at a time. " jesus Christ,
i would of figured you were suppose to slowly ease into if its the first time your using your ears properly, especially when its a sense that takes time getting used like hearing it wouldn't surprise me if she got a headache from all the noise
@@noraphelan5598 I don’t think it’s fine. I have family member who started hearing aids recently and it’s quite disturbing at first. They should start with low pitch specially for kids.
@@noraphelan5598 As an older person with tinnitus for 30 years, I can tell you that high pitched sounds are worse. I can work with power tools, lawnmowers, air powered torque wrenches but those sounds don’t hurt so it’s not just the volume, it’s high pitched frequency that’s painful to my hearing.
If she's never heard anything, including speech, how can she understand what's being said? Must sound like gibberish to her. Plus the high pitched voices may have hurt her ears. She was trying to remove the hearing aids, at least it looked that way to me.
She wouldn’t have heard nothing because hearing aids just amplify the sound that you can already hear so she could hear before but it’s would have just been very quiet.
@@esmegrant8442 Actually, many functionally deaf people can hear a little bit by using hearing aids. Their hearing isn't strong enough to get anything otherwise.
I think they just wanted her to hear their voices so she could become acclimatised to how they sound. Also they must have been emotional themselves. I really doubt the medical professionals would allow them to do anything to needlessly distress her.
We tune out so many sounds: electrical humming, wind blowing, animals rooting around, cars passing, the sound of our own pulse. The world is so loud. She was in shock.
They were using high pitched voices and then music. That was too much for her first time. She was in shock. It probably hurt. Nevertheless what an emotional moment for the family. 🙏🏻
Yes, she quickly grabbed her ears. I think it was a combination of not knowing what it was initially plus too loud. The clinicians should tell family to speak softly at first until the child gets use to it.
Yes, it wasn't the happy reaction I expected because the voices were too loud. The mom started talking when only the first hearing aid was in and confused the little girl. Hopefully she has now gotten used to hearing well and is a happy little girl.
@@poodlemoth950 Not exactly so. A baby is normally used to hearing sounds gradually while still in the mother's womb. This little girl heard no sounds at all up until the time her mom started talking very loudly as she inserted the hearing aid. And like someone said, the little girl was confused and startled because the mom started talking to her with only one hearing aid in. That in itself is a distorted sound. She should have spoken soothingly after both hearing aids were in, and only after the girl had gotten used to them being in her ears.
Oh what an adorable little girl, she was in awe of her Mums voice, and it was lovely the way her mum gently introduced her voice and not bellowed. I cried when I saw this, and Mum and Dad didn’t get all over excited they kept it all nice and calm for the little girl to get used to hearing, this is one of the most amazing things I’ve seen in a long time.
Lesley Jones you were obviously looking at another video than most of us. The girl is frightened, overwhelmed and the screechy, high pitched voice of her mom obviously hurts her ears.
I believe sound frequency is the key to communication. She wasn’t overwhelmed at the sound, she was overwhelmed at the feeling the sounds gave her. She calmed down when hearing the music. Parents were not loud just had a lot of energy and emotion behind their words. This is amazing to watch. Like wow
Absolutely agree. Those who've assumed she was distressed KNOW NOTHING (since they are NOT audiologists) regarding this situation and don't know how to read emotion.
God, what an amazing video. She's literally discovering a new way of experiencing the universe for the first time. Her reaction is so pure and genuine. Wish I could give her a hug and a kiss. She's so precious. Hope she's doing well now, wherever she is.
I agree. I have to assume it is very frightening to go from complete silence to sudden sound. My ears were clogged for months. When I finally went to the doctor it seemed like the whole world was screaming at me. It took days to get used to full volume.
isn't the whole point to take it easy on her the first time not all talking at the same time in incredibly high pitch voices and blasting music? clearly she is unconfortable.
@@babyteano1977 Absolutely, but you can see that little girl was completely overwhelmed. She's never heard anything before and then suddenly she's got both her parents blasting high pitched conversation at her and then loud music thrown at her. I totally get the parents were excited and happy, but things should have been done differently to not scare her so much. There was just too much sound all at once.
@@catherinemtc7795 I assume you've heard sound your whole life. For a little girl who's never heard anything, everything is too loud, unfortunately. This was much too loud and high pitched for her first time. I totally understand the emotion of her mother and father, absolutely reasonable. It was too much, though.
Having never heard any of those sounds or words, without signs, she would not know the meaning of any of the words and not know how to respond to "Hi. It's Mom and Dad." She literally doesn't know what "Hi" means or what a "Dad" is. Sometimes people think they can just go straight into understanding the sounds, it's as if you were speaking Chinese to them. They hear, but need to learn the meanings of each and every word, so Sign will still be a part of their lives for a while.
And also, prior to this point she had no understanding of the concept of hearing whatsoever so anyone who thinks she's crying out of joy is out of their minds.
I got my hearing aids as an adult after years of hearing decline. I had no idea how much I was missing. At first I could barely wear them for an hour. The technician told me it can take months or longer to adjust to "normal" hearing. I still get overwhelmed in crowds or by sudden loud sounds. The only advantage I had was that I had been able to hear for most of my life so at least I knew what sound was. I do hope that after the video, the parents had this explained to them and stopped the "adorable" overload.
Tbh she wouldn’t actually know what anyone is saying because she has never heard words before so it’s be like hearing alien language. So the mummy saying Hello may as well be goo goo gaa gaa but I understand the mums need to say those things. All the same the kid won’t understand any of it without sign language to assist what your saying
Lol that's my first thought, maybe it was even worse because she's the one filming but I was like "damn mom, shush with the high pitched squeaky voice, it hurts my ears and I don't have a hearing problem"
That squeaky, high pitched voice would make me want to cover my ears too hehe. A bit overwhelming playing music as well, like blasting a strobe in the eyes of a blind person seeing for the first time.
No one is squealing. That’s exactly how moms talk to their babies when they are first born. The child is reborn with hearing this time. They will have to be taught together how to start communicating. She is far behind hearing children. Sometimes the children cry when they first get the implants because they don’t know what sound is. Stop with the negative comments about the mother’s voice.
Ruby leuty - You are absolutely right. Babies and little kids are more likely to respond to a higher pitched voice like the Mom in this video. Mothers aren't fully aware of it unless someone points it out. Many Dads do it, too when talking to their own babies. It's biological and not an intentional act to irritate others.
Right! They're treating her like an average hearing kid needing distracted... Like no she needs you to shut up and let her get used to what she just experienced, like, her parents just made noises... 😳 she probably can hear herself breathing for the first time

It must be quite scary to be able to hear, after only knowing silence. Precious little girl. I hope and pray she’s doing wonderfully. ❤️

Mostly trying to feel the hearing aids and maybe take them off. Causing pain. And shock! It would probably take weeks.

Oh my goodness! She’s so precious! Enjoy every day, mom and dad.
Omg, that little one is off the charts cute. How wonderful you were able to enable her hearing.
I wouldn't call her reaction 'adorable' - if anything, she looked pretty distressed. I'm sure it didn't take long for her to adapt to it though.
She was probably just shocked and emotional at being able to hear clearer than before.
Agreed.
She's hearing something that her brain needs time to adjust.
I agree. I have to assume it is very frightening to go from complete silence to sudden sound. My ears were clogged for months. When I finally went to the doctor it seemed like the whole world was screaming at me. It took days to get used to full volume.
like glasses hearing aids are uncomfortable at first
isn't the whole point to take it easy on her the first time not all talking at the same time in incredibly high pitch voices and blasting music? clearly she is unconfortable.
The parents were excited to see her hearing them 😁
@@babyteano1977 Absolutely, but you can see that little girl was completely overwhelmed. She's never heard anything before and then suddenly she's got both her parents blasting high pitched conversation at her and then loud music thrown at her. I totally get the parents were excited and happy, but things should have been done differently to not scare her so much. There was just too much sound all at once.
The music wasn’t blasting and mom talked quiet.
@@catherinemtc7795 I assume you've heard sound your whole life. For a little girl who's never heard anything, everything is too loud, unfortunately. This was much too loud and high pitched for her first time. I totally understand the emotion of her mother and father, absolutely reasonable. It was too much, though.
Right!!
May Allah bless this beautiful girl i hope she have a wonderful life
BREATHTAKING MOMENT, the kid doesn't know whether to laugh or cry, or what to do. God Bless the little one!
OMG! Thank Lord for all technology
Amazing very touching!
Have an amazing life little girl GOD BLESS YOU AND BE WELL!
Having never heard any of those sounds or words, without signs, she would not know the meaning of any of the words and not know how to respond to "Hi. It's Mom and Dad." She literally doesn't know what "Hi" means or what a "Dad" is. Sometimes people think they can just go straight into understanding the sounds, it's as if you were speaking Chinese to them. They hear, but need to learn the meanings of each and every word, so Sign will still be a part of their lives for a while.
And also, prior to this point she had no understanding of the concept of hearing whatsoever so anyone who thinks she's crying out of joy is out of their minds.
@@MinimiMax BLAH BLAH BLAH
I love her sweet little face when she blinks while hearing the music!
she looks distressed and overwhelmed to be honest
Such a precious child. I wished they were more cognizant of the fact that her ears need to adjust to the new sounds she's picking up around her.
God bless her and her family. The joy they all felt when she heard for the first time!
Wow a whole new world opens up to her, God bless this lovely child🙏
It was likely tuned too loud. Was hurting her.
People should be sensitive to understand expressions and help.
I thought so too. Either tuned too loud or experiencing noise for the first time in life.
I got my hearing aids as an adult after years of hearing decline. I had no idea how much I was missing. At first I could barely wear them for an hour. The technician told me it can take months or longer to adjust to "normal" hearing. I still get overwhelmed in crowds or by sudden loud sounds. The only advantage I had was that I had been able to hear for most of my life so at least I knew what sound was.
I do hope that after the video, the parents had this explained to them and stopped the "adorable" overload.
Nurse: Do you like The Wiggles?
Girl: Never heard them.
Why can't I stop laughing. It's a dad joke...lol.
LMAO I WHEEZED AT THISSS😭😭
What a beautiful little girl, God bless her!
Sensory overload on this precious baby. How we take things for granted...
"its been so quiet and peaceful up to now"!
ikr
Tbh she wouldn’t actually know what anyone is saying because she has never heard words before so it’s be like hearing alien language. So the mummy saying Hello may as well be goo goo gaa gaa but I understand the mums need to say those things. All the same the kid won’t understand any of it without sign language to assist what your saying
goo goo gaa gaa
"whats the first song you heard?"
"hot potato by the wiggles"
She’s sooo precious may god be with her at all times
Her dad is so nice. bless her and her family
her ears are still trying to adapt to her hearing aids.
to mom's higher pitched voice. Heck it bothered me.
Seems like the parents needed some training to help her carefully transition.
Yes quite
Oooh cutiee.. ❤️ All the best for the future!
Overwhelming, I think is the word when I seee her reaction. Have a wonderful life little girl ❤
She’s absolutely adorable and beautiful! I wish you nothing but the best Sweetie. ☺️
God bless her.
Poor baby she’s not sure what’s happening and that can be scary. Best of luck to you all. 💕
Modern science put to good use!
Indeed.. I love when science makes religion (often invoked but never to any result) look like the nonsense it is.
I love science. It sounds like such a basic idea but videos like this one are the most visible proof of the wonders we have created.
Not *that* modern. Hearing aids date back to the 1890's. And I built the highest frequency cochlear stimulators on the planet about 20 years ago now.
I like how the mom does her highest pitch squeaking right when the girl can hear for the first time
You LIKE it?
I hate it
@@denise3111 sarcasm probably
Lol that's my first thought, maybe it was even worse because she's the one filming but I was like "damn mom, shush with the high pitched squeaky voice, it hurts my ears and I don't have a hearing problem"
@@denise3111 It was obvious sarcasm
She was just excited that her baby could hear
A beautiful little girl. She looks happy!
Omg that choked me when she looked scared and reached out to Mum. Bless her, the sweet lil thing ❤️
That squeaky, high pitched voice would make me want to cover my ears too hehe. A bit overwhelming playing music as well, like blasting a strobe in the eyes of a blind person seeing for the first time.
No one is squealing. That’s exactly how moms talk to their babies when they are first born. The child is reborn with hearing this time. They will have to be taught together how to start communicating. She is far behind hearing children. Sometimes the children cry when they first get the implants because they don’t know what sound is. Stop with the negative comments about the mother’s voice.
That stupid high pitched woman’s voice annoyed me as well.
Ruby leuty - You are absolutely right. Babies and little kids are more likely to respond to a higher pitched voice like the Mom in this video. Mothers aren't fully aware of it unless someone points it out. Many Dads do it, too when talking to their own babies. It's biological and not an intentional act to irritate others.
Dear dear dear
That's true but also hearing baby's are already used to hear sounds in the womb.
That’s not how mothers talk to newborns, it’s how morons talk to entities they think of as lower life forms.
kind of like people seeing color for the first time, i imagine this is probably just as overwhelming, if not more
Awww this brought tears to my eyes. What a lovely moment even with cold spaghetti. Bless her heart. ❤️
What a precious moment. The little angel just so happy. Words can't describe how happy she was.
“Do you like the wiggles” no she hasn’t heard a word before this moment😑
she may have seen them and liked them
@@EchoBravo370 I iii ik it was a joke
@@Lucas_Isaac it made no sense though so it wasn't funny.
@@place_holder2160 wait when
Right! They're treating her like an average hearing kid needing distracted... Like no she needs you to shut up and let her get used to what she just experienced, like, her parents just made noises... 😳 she probably can hear herself breathing for the first time
