It is possible that the newborn son may recognize the song and associate it with the calming environment of the womb. This is based on the theory of classical conditioning, in which a stimulus (the song) becomes associated with a certain response (relaxation) over time. However, it is important to note that not all newborns will react the same way to the same stimuli, as individual differences and environmental factors can play a role.
