White noise!!

Never used white noise and it just never happened!

@mrsjyw: this is one of my concerns too bc our kids will have rooms right next to each other. I plan on doing white noise in both rooms and putting LO1's bed on the wall farthest from the nursery

It might not be an issue. We introduced the white noise to our son when our daughter was born. But turns out he makes more noise than her. We never gave her white noise hoping she'll just get used to all the sounds. And so far so good. We've pretty much stopped the white noise for our son too.

Edit: their rooms are also next to each other.

DD slept in our room until 5 months(this week haha), but she's been STTN for about 2 1/2 months and once we transitioned her into her room(this week) right next to his, she's only woken a few times and didn't wake him. We were nervous about it, because my mom said my younger brother would wake me all the time when he was a newborn with his crying.

Usually it's the toddler that wakes up the baby! Baby slept with us until 8 months and since then they've been sharing a room. We use white noise but after the first couple of days they mostly got used to each others' sleep noises. So now when the toddler has a nightmare the baby wakes up, but when the baby cries the toddler will generally sleep through it until I get him.

I was worried about this too, but the baby never woke up #1, even when they started sharing a room! DD is an awesome sleeper. What actually was/is an issue, is DD1 playing/making noise while DD2 naps. Now that happens pretty often. DD2 is a light sleeper, even with white noise on, but she's gotten better over time.
