Would you recommend a white noise thingy?!?!

[Sardi28]

As above really 🤪🤪

And which one please?? Xxxx

I use Alexa to play thunderstorm sounds during the night. I love it.

Ah! Never thought of that 👍🏻 thank you x

We use one for DS. I used to use a Goggle home but found the loop would cut out of it would lose signal and stop playing, so bought one on Amazon. They are all similar but you need one that plays constantly with no fade or loop.

We use google home or Spotify womb sounds track

Definitely, ours seems to be a cue for DS that it's time to sleep as he always yawns when we put it on! It also helps to cover up the sound of our ridiculously noisy neighbours 🙃 we got ours off Amazon, I can't seem to find a link to it though so I wonder if it's not available anymore, sorry. It's just a bog standard mains one though.

Someone bought me an oli the owl for my second baby worked a dream never even thought of anything like that with my first!

We downloaded the SoundSleeper app and that done the trick...most of the time 🙈

I used white noise playlists on Spotify. DD was a big fan of industrial fan noises

Had Ewan the Sheep but it cuts out after 20 mins. It will reactivate but only if there is a loud noise and baby is probably already awake!

I ended up using an old phone and a voice recorder app. Recorded a portion of the sheep then just duplicated it and put it on a loop. Works like a charm.

We used an out of tune radio which worked quite well!

YES! We have Percy penguin which cuts out after 30 min but kicks back in again without touching it if he stirs! Brilliant. Also use an app on my phone out and about

My Hummy mini. You can control it via your phone and can set it to go for 10 mins to several hours. It also detects if your baby wakes up and it starts up again. It was a lifesaver for us in the early months!

Yes! They're brilliant. We had a lionheart bear that had a white noise thing in its tummy. It worked really well. Now use Google Home Bedtime.

We downloaded two tracks of ocean waves from iTunes and just play them on a loop via phone or iPad. Tried white noise but it set my teeth on edge and I needed to sleep too! Maybe YouTube some white/brown/pink noise, some nature sounds etc and see what you think you could actually sleep to before deciding.

We are planning on using Spotify on our phones and a bluetooth speaker. Not all babies like white noise so ar lease that way if our little one doesnt like it, w ehavent spent any extra on it

I downloaded the White Noise Deep Sleep app. There's loads of noises to choose from. It definitely helped a lot. For baby and me!

As pps have said, we use an app. For daytime naps In a Moses basket/bassinet kitchen noises work well (tumble dryer, washing machine & dishwasher rather than rummaging in cupboards).

Get an Alexa.
"alexa play white noise"
"Alexa loop on"
Job done.

Alternatively get a cheap tablet and use YouTube there are tracks that are ten and twelve hours long.

I use Alexa . You can even set her on whisper mode so you can ask her quietly.
All though one day I whispered and she litrelly shouted "sorry I didn't catch that" and woke my baby up grrrrrr.

But yes white noise is great, we live in a flat and it helps drown out the random bangs of people coming in and out the front door or dogs barking next door ect.

We’ve been given an Oli the Owl by a friend who swears by it. It plays for a while and then goes off but reactivates if the baby wakes

Ewan the Dream Sheep worked really well.

Also putting DD in the pantry, swaddled with the dryer on (door open so it didn't get too hot, dark in there too). Lots of "DH DON'T PUT THE DRYER ON NOW! SHE NEEDS TO NAP!"

Not as my friend thought I said "in the dryer"

We use our spotify account. There is a brilliant playlist that goes on for 12hours called Womb Sound. Our LO loves it.

😍😍 thank you all . We have an Alexa upstairs and down. How do I put it on whisper @MisiSam 😂😂

Old school but works... tune a radio in to static and adjust the volume to whatever you need. Worked with my DC for years.

😂 Just day "alexa turn on whisper mode" but be aware she is a biatch and will act like you didn't sometimes. The arguments I have with Alexa! 😂
