"I had to share this with everyone because I'm so amazed it works. For what it's worth, I'm not a salesman, just a desperate parent! I had to go back to work this week, and last night I just started crying because the situation was untenable for all of us. This morning, I downloaded the SoundSmart mp3, put it on right by her crib and put her down. Of course, she started crying — really loud. But I waited in the other room, determined to give it at least the five minutes. At minute four, it was totally quiet. Of course, I rushed in to make sure she was still breathing. She was! Fast asleep! This is a baby who would NEVER sleep without being swaddled and binkied, and who is a determined crier!" |

"I loved it. I play it in the morning as the children are arriving - It brings a calm over the center and makes it a relaxing atmosphere."

"To be honest, I've never heard anything like it - we just don't want to turn it off! It literally calms the whole family down, and actually brings us together in a really nice way. You outta market this as medicine and therapy! The baby is happier, and we're ALL happier."

"My grandson, who is now 10 months old, has been using the BabySleep System CD since his first day of life. He slept through the night at 12 days of age from 9:00 pm to 6:00 am. The CD plays continously through the night and while he naps. If for some reason the CD does not get turned on, his sleep is not as sound or as long. Awesome product!!"

"To tell you the truth I was doubtful but pleased
to find it was great for the children to relax. It's wonderful for
the children. Thank you."

"We were given this CD and were thrilled when it worked. Our 13 month old was having sleep problems and we were dealing with 4 or 5 night waking's every night. She is now sleeping through the night and when she does wake up it takes seconds to soothe her."

"fourth trimester". Babies can have a difficult time getting used to the huge amount of stimuli present in their
new life outside of Mom's body. Their reaction to all of this is to cry and cry." |

greatly decrease the amount of touching time without realizing it." |

| Elizabeth Pantley - Author of the "No Cry Sleep Solution" "Get familiar with your baby's sleepy signals and put her down to sleep as soon as she seems tired. A baby who is encouraged to stay awake when her body is craving sleep is an unhappy baby. Over time, this pattern develops into sleep deprivation, which complicates developing sleep maturity. |

Dr. Spock "Sleep problems are exhausting to both baby and parent. The baby is apt to become irritable in the daytime, too, and may eat less well. The parents can't help getting more and more irritated and resentful. |
||
A baby just shouldn't be able to put adults through a performance like this every night. The parents know it, but don't know what to do about it. Even the baby senses, I think, that she shouldn't be able to get away with such tyranny." |

I have shared the SoundSleep CD with several NICU nurses who report the babies, parents and nurses all love the CD. They encourage people to use it in the hospital and at home.”
