White Noise CD for a Baby Shower Gift
Attending a baby shower and don’t know what to get the new baby? Onesies, diapers, and sleepers are all useful. But, why not add something indispensible to your gift bag that most new parents don’t even realize they need until they need it? A White noise cd.
What the heck is White Noise
Well, simply put, it’s the monotonic drone noise you hear when a fan is running. Or the sound your wheels make on the road while you are driving. Experts will tell you it is all the frequencies a human ear can hear put all together. Kind of like white light is all the colors human eyes can see put all together.
Why would a baby like white noise?
Well, a baby, especially a colic baby, responds to hearing white noise. Playing white noise cd’s mimics the sound a baby hears in the womb. When a baby is born, it is thrust into a loud, confusing, startling world. Often, the baby can’t handle the stress and reacts in the only way she knows how.
To cry .
Uncontrollably.
White noise can help quiet the crying by tricking baby into thinking she is back in the womb where everything was warm and cozy.
For anyone who has been subjected to a baby suffering from colic, they can testify. Colic is not a pleasant experience. A colicky baby can take a mild-mannered parent and turn them into a stressed out shell. New parents, in particular, might not have the faintest idea that their baby is colicky. Because of the excessive crying, they might assume they are doing something wrong and become incredibly frustrated. That’s when your white noise baby shower gift becomes the real life saver. Just hearing a few moments of the cd will calm that colic baby quick.
But there’s more! White noise cd’s have other amazing uses for baby.
Helps baby sleep
Another bonus of playing white noise is baby sleeps better. Not only does the white noise soothe a fussy outburst, it also masks out other noises in the home that may disturb baby’s slumber. Instead of being startled when a dog barks, or a doorbell rings, baby won’t even hear it! Baby will sleep soundly.
What’s the best type of white noise to buy
White noise is sold in several variations. The type recommended by experts is either a vacuum cleaner sound or hair dryer sound. These types mimic the tone baby experienced in the womb the best.
Try not to buy white noise cd’s that are just digital noise. Try to find the kind that are actually recordings of either a vacuum cleaner, or a hair dryer running.
How do I purchase white noise?
You can purchase white noise almost anywhere. You can even purchase it online or download it as an MP3 from ITunes and burn your own CD for the baby shower gift. Just Google Vacuum Cleaner White Noise to find out where you can buy a white noise cd online.
