I honestly sleep better with the soft sound of something like that - or even the dishwasher running at night.

Thanks!

THis is a great tip–we already use this for our 4-month old. I’msure he’ll be addicted to white noise, but it’s a great thing to have–I think it helps him sleep SO much better!!

I would so miss the wonderful night sounds…the insects in the summer, the owls that hoot in the fall and spring, the coyotes, the deer snorting in the field, the rain on the roof, even the sound of the snow as the wind blows it against the window is a joy to me.

My son especially thinks that your collection looks pretty cool…probably because his personal fan is very similar

When we were first married, we lived in an attic apartment, and used the extra bedroom as a study. We found a hole in the wall and fed speaker wire through it from the living room, so we could enjoy music in that room as well. When our oldest son came home from the hospital, we hurriedly put together his crib and rolled it over to the corner, forgetting about the speaker that was now concealed beneath it.

I remember many evenings, sitting in our living room, listening to our music, until one day we noticed that we weren’t getting much of a stereo effect. Belatedly, we realized that all this time, the speaker was blaring away under our newborn son.

While I wouldn’t recommend this as a standard practice for newborns, it is interesting to note that to this day, it takes a noise on the apocalyptic level to wake him.
