can really loud music heart fetus' ears/cause damage?

hi girls!  last night i went out with my girlfriends for a bachelorette party.  fortunately, there is no longer smoking in maryland bars so i didn't have to worry about that...but...something i didn't think about--loud, thumping dance music!  we went to a club and i had lots of fun, but i wasn't the "dancing queen" as i usually am because i was so worried that the loud music would hurt my little girl's ears!  i sat at a table (fortunately i have a few wallflower friends that i was able to hangout with!!).  i kind of wrapped my arms and my purse around my tummy to protect her as much as i could, but then i felt like a paranoid idiot!  i am 22 weeks pregnant with my first child and i am a freak!  do you think it's okay to be around the loud music for a few hours???

I spent almost every weekend at band practices and local shows when i was pregnant with my first.  She hears perfectly well, except for when she chooses not too LOL.  She has the same love for music that i do now.  I think becuase everything is muffled in there, baby will be fine.

my friend worked in a bar her whole pregnancy and the baby was fine, other then it needed dance music in order to go to sleep rather then the typical baby music
