Thank you everyone again for the suggestions. I'm still going through them! There's a lot here!
I'll have to look for that Pooh Corner CD. Who doesn't love Winnie the Pooh?
I would do almost anything to make him to stop crying. He makes this one sound that is so plaintive and sad and his tiny face looks so miserable that it breaks my heart. Other times he screams so loud and high pitched that we can't hear each other even if we're yelling as loud as we can and we're only standing a few feet apart. I'm going, "CAN YOU HAND ME THE DIAPER CREAM?" And he's saying, "WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU! WHAT DID YOU SAY?"
I wonder if the Metallica is like the vacuum cleaner or the blow dryer. They work wonders sometimes. Metallica would be safer than leaving either one of those appliances running while we sleep, which we've done a few times. I've tried a white noise machine, but it doesn't get loud enough. I wonder if I can sleep with Metallica playing...
I can relate. I was never into "kid music" or kids shows or Disney movies. Makes it kind of hard to be a mom! I LIVED on Kenny Loggins Pooh Corner CD's. He has two of them and both of them make me cry equally. Those CDs are so fantastic I can't even describe them.
Heres the WEIRD thing..when my baby was so fussy that nothing could console him I tried Metallica played at somewhat loud volume and it would calm him almost immediately. I have no idea why but I read it on the net somewhere and it worked like a charm.
