my vacuum cleaner. Not only does it keep my floors clean, but it puts my screaming baby to sleep.
I have new appreciation for the wonderous invention.

Hmm, maybe I should take up vacuuming more productive than the hair dryer (which also works)

As long as he is actually asleep he will stay asleep for a couple of hours. Doesnt work in the evening though for some reason.
Rachel I couldnt be bothered standing there with a hairdryer.
Its funny cos he can be full on screaming and I switch it on and in 2 seconds he is completely calm and about 5mins later I turn it off!

LOL Ava used to fall asleep when the vacuum was going - now it makes her scream and the only time I can do the vacuuming is when DP is home to look after her and distract her!! Ditto with the lawnmower.

Denny we had the same prob, used to be good then Jack went nuts every time it came out! It's taken a few months of leaving it just sitting in the hallway for him to be OK with 'helping' to vacuum now as long as he's in a good mood and is included. Worth a try
