I've read good things about these before, might help: loopearplugs.com (I'm not affiliated)
Decided to order a set. I thought they were standard ear plugs. Looks like these had some engineering behind them.
Yeah I'm really tempted to, I just don't have the funds at the moment. Let me know what you think!
I think it's hilarious that one of the advertised features is basically keeping your sanity when you have a newborn.
It's interesting so far. Not sure if you are in the US or not but recently the whole country had a test of our emergency system. It was super uncomfortable even with them on but I'd have to imagine it would have been worse if wasn't wearing them.
Also losing the "ability" to hear every small noise around me is rather off putting but in a way...peaceful?
