Singing works like a charm. Her nanny sings to her when she's upset, too.</p> <p>ETA: And she has a favorite song, too. It's cute because she'll smile when I start singing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-503190 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 12:39:35 +0000 jennylynn 503190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 9 months old and I hum to her all the time before naps and bedtime. It seems to help relax her when she's restless or fighting sleep, and as a bonus it helps me relax too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-503168 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 12:31:17 +0000 twinmama 503168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely. Part of the nap routine, and at night if they are having trouble getting to sleep. Mine are 6 months. My mom sang to me whenever I had trouble falling asleep well into grade school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-503101 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 11:59:31 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 503101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For TG it's part of our routine, it helps her to stop chatting and settle. I sing to Wonder Baby to sooth her if she's having a rough time falling asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-503096 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 11:57:35 +0000 T-Mom 503096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@London Mama: I totally used to do this with DD! I would sing in order to get her to eat, it was like she had a dinner with musical program every day! I finally was able to stop when she was older and able to follow directions better.</p> <p>Right now, I sing to DS as part of his sleep cues. Just a tiny bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-502616 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 09:16:47 +0000 Weagle 502616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's part of our nap routine. She's 8 months old. As soon as the white noise comes on and the door closes, she lays her head down on my shoulder while I sing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-502456 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:58:06 +0000 London Mama 502456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do for naps but not at night, I also sing whenever DS is upset or needs to be distracted, usually works a charm. You could say my life has turned into a musical, I sing when we change diapers, get dressed, do the laundry, cooking etc etc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sing-to-help-your-lo-sleep#post-502452 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:52:20 +0000 mrbee 502452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie has had trouble sleeping the last two nights, and so I broke out a baby trick and started singing him Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star. I couldn't believe it, but it worked! He immediately settled down and after about 10 minutes of singing, our three-year-old toddler flipped over and fell asleep.</p> <p>Do you sing to help your LO sleep? How old is your LO? </p>
