White noise a game changer?

Question

Hey ladies! How many of y’all have a white noise machine? Pros/cons of them would be much appreciated! Thanks

Answer

Yes. Yes. Yes. The only con is that they can get annoying for myself sometimes. But the consitant background noise helps keep him from hearing other sounds, like cars, planes, dogs etc. I got a cheap one on Amazon and it has several settings. It took a few tries to see which he did best with... it's the ocean. It definitely wont hurt to try!

Answer

I don’t but have always used a fan for white noise with all my babies. I personally can’t sleep without the noise of it and now my first two kids can’t sleep without a fan either. All my babies started sleeping through the night at very early ages and are still are excellent sleepers. Not sure if the fan is a part of that or not... but I know I have to have it on to sleep well.

Answer

I just use a white noise app on an old phone for my son. It helps him sleep longer

Answer

My 10 month old has probably never slept without white noise. I take it with us whenever he naps away from home.

Answer

It’s a necessity for us! We’ve used it since newborn stage (she’s now 2) and she loves the ocean/waves crashing. If she doesn’t have it, it’s a struggle to get her to sleep and stay asleep.

Answer

It took me a few weeks to set up the Hatch we got, but it works for us! I like that when I nurse him in the middle of the night I can just brighten it through my phone and it’s still dark enough where it won’t keep him up. My nightstand light was bothering him and I.
