Here comes the beat: Moms prefer giving birth to songs by Coldplay and The Beatles, new data says

Turns out, the miracle of life has a killer playlist.

According to a new analysis of thousands of Spotify birth-themed playlists, Coldplay, The Beatles, Ed Sheeran and Fleetwood Mac are the go-to artists helping moms push through the pain — and into parenthood.

The baby stroller brand iCandy just took a spin through Spotify — and unearthed 1,800 birth playlists to find out which songs moms are pushing play (and babies) to.

When it comes to delivery-room anthems, it seems moms have “Fix You” by Coldplay on repeat. 

The popular group and their 2005 hit song topped the charts for birthing playlists, with their other tracks popping up a whopping 140 times. 

Soulful Ed Sheeran croons in second place — no shock there — while classic rock giants Fleetwood Mac and The Beatles tie for third, proving that “Here Comes the Sun” is more than just wishful thinking in the delivery room. 

Rounding out the setlist? Slow, soulful ballads from favorites like Norah Jones, John Legend, Taylor Swift and Elton John — because nothing says “push!” like “Your Song.”

It’s unknown exactly why so many moms prefer this kind of music to push along to, but then again, who wouldn’t want to bring their miracle into the world while bopping along to some “The Life Of a Showgirl?”

And according to science, it’s not just mothers who mellow out to music — unborn babies do, too.

Classical melodies have been found to slow fetal heart rates and may even jump-start healthy development before birth.

Unlike your average pulse check, which tallies beats over a few seconds, heart rate variability zooms in on the split-second gap between each thump — a tiny detail that can reveal a lot about a baby’s development.

Researchers say those fluctuations offer a peek into how a fetus’s nervous system is maturing — the more variation, the healthier the growth.

To put it to the test, scientists recruited 36 moms-to-be and treated their bumps to a mini classical concert, measuring how the unborn audience’s heartbeats danced along to the music.

For the in-utero jam session, researchers cued up two classics — “The Swan” by French maestro Camille Saint-Saëns and “Arpa de Oro” by Mexican composer Abundio Martínez.

With tiny heart monitors strapped on, they tracked how the unborn audience reacted to each tune — and thanks to some fancy math called “nonlinear recurrence quantification analysis,” they could even spot subtle rhythm changes in the babies’ heartbeats during and after the music played.

According to a statement by Dr. Claudia Lerma, study author of the National Institute of Cardiology in Mexico, the team discovered that “exposure to music resulted in more stable and predictable fetal heart rate patterns.”

She added, “We speculate that this momentary effect could stimulate the development of the fetal autonomic nervous system.”

Researchers didn’t just study whether tunes made a difference — they wanted to know which tune hit harder in the womb.

Both classical pieces struck a chord, but it was the Mexican guitar melody that really got those tiny hearts thumping.
