As a newborn I used to vacuum & hairdryer in same room & she'd sleep through. Now as a toddler I vacuum & use hair dryer in house but not in same room.

She was used to noise & quiet then. The noises she would hear everyday such as vacuum, hair dryer, shower, talking etc she would sleep through. Something 'new' or higher pitched like the door bell would wake her though.

Yes I always have when my kids were babies ... That's how you get the days and nights thing established ...

Yes, if I didn't, we'd live in a pigsty! And if they wake before I finish.. they deal until I'm done! ??

I have an 11 month old daughter, so our two week old son has been used to noise since he came home lol.

I wish I would have! It has to be really quiet for DD to sleep, but she must have a fan on.

I do everything I would do if the baby was awake. Laundry, dishwashing, mopping, whatever. I don't vacuum, but that's because I don't have a carpet.

I was amazed we took DD to see Logan in theaters and she slept through most of it! So I bet vacuuming won't be an issue. Lol

I always tell people baby is sleeping so they don't go wake her up, but they start to be super quiet and I try to tell them it's ok to be noisy. Just don't purposely pick her up to wake her lol

Not really. I mean we still live our lives lol like watch tv at a decent volume, turn lights on, close doors etc..but I take care of all the noisy chores before bedtime. Both my girls can sleep through lots of things and also my youngest falls asleep to Kenny g every night but I just like to consider anyone when they're sleeping so if I don't have to do anything that requires alot of noise I dont during that time.

My girls use a while noise machine...all except my 11 year old..who sleeps through everything..except her phone ?

Yeah, noise doesn't bother her. Pretty sure my kid could sleep through a frat party.

Oh yeah. I clean the house, cook, have music going. Makes life a whole lot easier when you don't have to walk around on egg shells while the baby sleeps.

I'm planning to do this with this baby. With my 3 kids I was always quiet so they have super light sleep.

My friend takes her baby to BBQ's and she sleeps even when there's laughing and loud music. She's just used to it. I'm planning to do that with this baby coming in July

Yes! Music, vacuum, doorbell rings, dogs freak out, all of the above! Lol

We have a pack n play in the living room that she naps in .. the tv is on, I do chores, and make a normal amount of noise.. at bed time she sleeps in her crib and the only noise is the humidifier and box fan .. she's been a perfect sleeper from about 2 months on

I play music ?

I don't try to be quiet. But it's just DD and I at the house most days and I normally vacuum when she's awake. I wonder if she will wake up if I do it while she's sleeping. ?

Yes!!!

My daughter is two and up until recently she would freak out whenever I vacuumed. I had to start vacuuming during her nap time just so she wouldn't scream the whole time I vacuumed. Noise has never bothered her when she slept though.

Yup day activities continue during the day.

We try to be quiet at night but not during the day.

We will vaccuum doing naps. Last night after bedtime my husband made fruit shakes in the blender and she slept right through it!

Yes but I have a quieter vacuum took him to exs mum and she vacuumed and he got so scared.

I do everything I normally would do. The only time I try to be quiet is when DH is sleeping or if it's early morning.

Yup. Not all the time but I will if it needs done. It never wakes him up.

Ja, don't be afraid to make noise. Can be good for them.

Yup! I do any and everything I would normally do.

Yup, sure do. DD will sleep right through it. If she's awake, sometimes it'll put her to sleep ?

I won't vacuum on the same floor as his bedroom, but I do just about everything else.

Yes my house is always noisy so if it's to quiet my LO wakes up I swear the nosier it is the deeper she sleeps

White noise machines! Lol. I have one but I have to use it because dd is such a light sleeper any noise will wake her. Now I can't sleep without it ha. I am completely quiet during nap time otherwise she'll wake up and won't go back to sleep.

And then they wont sleep throughh the night without noise. ??? you have to have some quiet times during the day to show them that sleeping time as well.

@mama Nikki. She's so right!

Yep. From the day they come home. And they can sleep through any and everything haha
