One of our bathrooms is right next to E's room and we've never had this issue! Your kid is an insanely light sleeper!

Maybe...two white noise machines!

That stinks!! Mine has bat ears, just like me but fortunately our bathroom isn't nearby.

@.twist.: I feel your pain, our kitchen backs onto E's room so tidying up/cooking when he's sleeping suuuucks! We use white noise too. I swear kids have the best hearing! Wish I could help! Oh and the laundry is on the otherwise of his room

Our guest bathroom is right next to C's room and the toilet flushes SO loudly. We don't let guests use it while she is sleeping and make them use the master which luckily is far enough away. Nap time IS shower time!

Our kitchen is close to her room, though, so I can do general quiet clean up or cooking in there, but I can't empty the dishwasher. I hate when I forget to do it until she is in bed. And forget vacuuming.

@.twist.: Which white noise machine do you have??

@.twist.: I'm sorry. I can kind of relate as our one shower/tub combo is between the two bedrooms (door in the hallway) and shares a wall with lo's crib. When I want to shower while she's asleep I leave the fan on when I put her down so she falls asleep with that and her white noise on, and then somehow she doesn't wake up. I shower about 30-60 mins after she falls asleep usually, if it's nighttime. Haven't tried in in the daytime. Maybe you could also try a towel under the door while you're turning the water on to keep the noise out? It might be the pipes in the wall though. Actually come to think of it I think our last place the bathroom shared a wall with her room too, although not the wall the crib was next to. I can't help you with the hair dryer, though. That is one of the reasons I don't use one.

Another no flusher at night here!! C is still in my room until I have time to reconfigure four girls beds in one room Sadly our master bath also shares a wall with their room, and the guest/kids bathroom is directly across the hall from their room.

Our next home needs to have the master on the opposite side of the home, my first home was like that and I LOVED it!!!

Yes, lol loving in 800 sq ft we have this problem too! There is a door to our only bathroom from DS's room, so every time we flush the toilet it has the potential to wake him up. This is something I am considering when looking for a house, I definitely want separation of space between the master suite and other rooms - and I actually prefer a more closed off floor plan vs. open concept because of this reason as well. I don't like when the upstairs (bedroom area) has an opening to the downstairs which seems to be a very 90's floor plan!
