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) ------------- DD 4yrs DS 2yrs http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

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
