I really wanted to get a nice one that played music but couldn't find one I liked, now I'm glad I went with pretty easy and cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252480 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 20:11:48 +0000 Boheme 1252480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a mobile that doesn't make noise. It's from Etsy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252476 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 20:10:17 +0000 MrsH 1252476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a mobile that doesn't make noise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252471 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 20:07:57 +0000 Smurfette 1252471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Someone gave us their daughters mobile when she stopped<br /> caring about it. But R sleeps on her tummy so the mobile was pointless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252462 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 20:02:03 +0000 MrsF 1252462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a mobile because I sort of just thought we should and I wished we had saved the $$$. The white noise machine, on the other hand, we could not live without. We have a marpac dohm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252454 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 19:55:58 +0000 LovelyPlum 1252454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! </p> <p>I'm thinking that I might try to make a mobile with no lights or noise for over the crib like you did, @Foodnerd81: , because like @Mrs. J: I like the look, too! I guess if LO really ends up liking the mobile on the swing/bouncy chair/whatever we end up getting, I could always get one for the crib, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252416 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 19:09:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 1252416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a white noise machine and a simple pinwheel mobile that I made- so it moves with the wind but no motor or sounds. We plan to use the white noise way longer than a mobile. @lawbee11: c stares at the light on our video monitor too! It took us so long to figure out that was why it seemed like she was always staring right at us! We even put duct tape over the light to make it softer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252369 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 18:07:55 +0000 Cherrybee 1252369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only have a white noise machine. My DD struggles to sleep with any kind of visual stimulus so we gave the mobile a miss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252202 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:50:50 +0000 regberadaisy 1252202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We ended up skipping a mobile. I couldn't find one I really liked and most are $$$. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252199 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:47:47 +0000 lawbee11 1252199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just have a white noise machine. We have the Foscam mounted on the wall and LO falls asleep staring at it and "chats" with it every morning (I guess she likes the red lights on it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252197 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:45:08 +0000 Mrs. J 1252197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both. So far, we have only used the sleep sheep ( I got the travel one so it attaches to his crib). I like how the mobile looks over his crib! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252196 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:44:48 +0000 swedishfish 1252196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both....we have a Marpac Dohm which stays on all night. The crib mobile is turned on twice to help R fall asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-a-white-noise-machine-do-you-also-have-a-crib-mobile#post-1252192 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:43:21 +0000 LovelyPlum 1252192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious. Most of the crib mobiles I have seen seem to have soothers with them as well, which seems unnecessary if I'm using a noise machine. Did you just go with one that doesn't make noise, or did you skip it all together?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
