White Noise CD’s

You’ve probably heard about the parent who puts their newborn into the car at 11:30 at night to get them to stop crying and go to sleep. Or you might even be chuckling, thinking, “I’ve done that!” But, why is it that riding in a car will lull even the crankiest newborn into a deep, restful slumber?

Well, it is the white noise created from the sound of the tires combined with the gentle jostling motion (which reminds baby of being in the womb). So, if only you could create this effect without heading out into the night!

You can. Just buy yourself a white noise cd!

White noise cd’s are portable, promote a deep and restful sleep, and can be played over and over again. And, they are so much easier than driving around the block a hundred times until baby finally falls asleep!

White noise CD’s are readily available all over the internet. If you are looking at one specifically geared toward soothing your colicky baby, you need to investigate the cd’s that are of vacuum cleaners or hair dryers running. These particular sounds are very close to the sound your baby heard while in the womb. Colic Baby Bootcamp sells a 60 minute white noise cd of a vacuum cleaner running. They also offer other advice and remedies for babies suffering from colic.

Beware of the white noise cd’s that are created digitally on the computer. They often times are not very pleasant and sound screechy. You should make sure you listen to the white noise sample before you place your order. If the sample sounds unpleasant to you, don’t buy it.

Also, for best sound-masking results, avoid the white noise cd’s that combine something like a hair dryer and children’s lullabies. They do not seem to be as effective as the cd’s that are original recordings of either a vacuum cleaner, or a hair dryer running. And who wants to hear Old McDonald Had a Farm playing over the sound of a hair dryer?

So, ease those symptoms of colic and help your fussy baby relax and sleep better through the night. Order yourself a white noise cd.
