Babies: 0 - 3 Months

When will my baby stop sounding like a dolphin?

My baby boy is 1 month old and sounds like a dolphin. Sometimes a horse, and other times a kitten. He makes the most ridiculous noises! Its really cute, but also annoying when I go to lay him down for a nap... He just squeaks and squeals! And snorts..

When he falls into a deeper sleep he's quiet, but it takes so long for him to get there sometimes! I'm just laying in bed listening to animal noises trying to catch a few Z's. I'm starting to become a cranky mommy.

Any suggestions to getting a peaceful sleepy baby instead of a wiggly, dolphin-sounding, light-sleeping baby?

  • LOL! I know what you mean. There is nothing you can do about it. My pedi said they are noisy because their nasal passages are tiny.

    hahaha... I said the same thing!  My husband can't hear the dolphin sounds, but every time I do, I giggle. 

    and fwiw, the dolphin noises have decreased in frequency by now... I don't hear them as often.

  • This cracked me up! The snorting, I never knew about the snorting until LO came along. Good luck, hopefully the zoo will quiet down at night. :)

  • Haha! I said that my son sounded like a baby zebra and my husband looked at me like I was nuts... He is almost 3 months now and it's not as bad but I know what you mean.
  • My daughter sounds like a chipmunk.  She is a cute chipmunk though.

  • We have a white noise machine that was bought for the nursery but we are using it in our room until she moves to the crib because I need something to cover up dds noises.
