White noise

[cairnterrier]

Random thought - does white noise work so well because it sounds like someone saying 'shhhhhhhh'? ie we instinctively generate our own white noise when trying to settle a LO? Emphasis is on trying in this household.

So sorry, up every hour through the night with a teething DS so thoughts all a bit random at the moment.

lol! probably something like that. I read this article on white noise though and how it can sometimes be bad for babies...

Poor you, up all night with teething. I know how it feels hon. :(

its like womb noise, that's the theory. dd is 7 months and sleeps with white noise cd on full blast

so my womb sounds like a hairdryer....

Cool

Same as riven ,never without the fan.

Our little one sleeps with white noise during naps and at night. She was a terrible sleeper and it really helped her relax and stopped her waking at the slightest noise.

We downloaded trackes for the i-pod and have some portable speakers in her room.

She's 9 months now though and we have been thinking about stopping it. And now I'm more concerned about it having read that article! . Can it really effect development?!

The problem is being brave enough to try it one night when we are so enjoying her sleeping through!!
