About This

White noise creates a steady background sound that may help babies settle more easily.

Inside the womb, babies hear constant sounds around them. Silence can actually feel unfamiliar.

Gentle sleep sounds may help by:

✨ Reducing sudden noises
✨ Creating a feeling of comfort
✨ Helping babies stay asleep longer
✨ Supporting a calmer bedtime environment

Good options include:

• Rain sounds
• Ocean waves
• Soft fan sounds
• Gentle brown noise

The goal isn’t loud sound. Soft and consistent usually works best.
