Posted by Babies - 07/03/10 at 11:03 pm


Ask any new parent. Bedtime and nap time cam be some of the most challenging times. At this point, you may have tried about a million things to get your infant to fall asleep more easily, including, possibly, warm lavender baths, lullabies, swaddling, and walking the floors for endless hours. If this is the case, you’re probably either about to give up on ever getting a full night’s sleep again, or you’re probably looking for something else that might work.

Well, one thing that you should try is a sound machine. It sounds strange, but sound machines really work.

Sound machines that are made specifically for babies will fill your infant’s room with white noise, but it won’t just be any white noise; these white noise machines mimic ocean-like noises and heartbeats, like your infant once heard in the womb. These noises are innately soothing to infants, and they are scientifically proven to help infants fall asleep and stay asleep.

Believe it or not, this basic technology can improve the quality of your life.

Incorporating this type of machine into your nightly bedtime routine is simple; all you have to do is switch it on while you’re swaddling, rocking, bathing, or singing, and watch as you baby drifts to sleep more easily than ever before.

This trick can work particularly well for babies who are habitually fussy or who wake up and seem unable to get back to sleep without someone to help soothe them. If this is a problem you’re experiencing, you might try to leave the sound machine on all night, and it could be just the soothing influence your baby needs to help himself get back to sleep when he wakes up in the night. Most people are hesitant when it comes to trying new products to help their baby sleep through the night.

Doctors, professionals and sleep experts have been recommending sound machines for many years. Besides, a baby sound machine is not an expensive solution, and you can get a nice one for less than fifty dollars. It’s worth it to try one more solution especially if it works for you and your family. New parents agree that their biggest challenge is getting their baby to fall asleep.
