I've been using the "Peace Baby" CD every night with Hannah since she got home. I swear by it. She seems to startle and wake less with some background noise. It's so quiet at night time (not the usual household hustle and bustle of the daytime) that without the CD on, she seems to wake to every little noise (like the dogs barking outside, a bird, me coughing etc.)
During the day I have the TV on or have her near the washing machine/dryer/vaccum cleaner etc.
When she's really fussy, I have a CD of chanting Tibetan Monks from the Woodford Folk Festival. She seems to be lulled by the low, gutteral sounds they make, and the ringing of the little bells. Tim has tried imitating the monks, and can get her to nod off from crying to fast asleep! It's hillarious to watch. My voice isn't deep enough apparently!
