Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Suggestions for a bedtime song?

We want to start a routine of a bedtime song but we both forget what you sing to babies :)

Suggestions, please?  Thanks! Big Smile

  • I sing twinkle twinkle little star. It's a classic, lol. I can't wait to read the response though

  • Babies don't care what you sing. Sing any song you like.

    My husband only knows two tunes "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "When the Cassions go rolling along" He hums them.

    I sing a Cranberries song "Dreaming my Dreams" every night. Sometimes I throw in some sorority songs or other slow songs from bands I like (Alisson Kraus, Christina Aquilera, Diana Krall)

    Otherwise you can get a lullaby CD and learn some lyrics. Have fun!

  • I sing just about anything, The wizard of oz, grease, phantom of the opera, commercials, things I make up. The list is endless. He likes it and that is all that matters right now.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

    This!  And I made up some new verses that are slightly different.

  • We sing Baby Beluga and Go To Sleep Little Baby.  And when he's really cranky we sing Man of Constant Sorrow.  I saw Oh Brother, Where Art Thou recently...if you couldn't tell :-)

  • I sing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and East Side, West Side to both DD and DS before they get put to bed. 

    It's adorable, because DD is starting to sing along.
