I know we've talked about these before but I'm too tired to go searching...who has one that does not turn off on it's own? I'm getting desperate to try anything to get her to sleep longer. Or, if no noise machine, maybe a CD rec that I could put on auto-repeat?

Re: Noise Machine
What about using a small fan?
I'm pretty sure you can find white noise videos on YouTube and put them on a loop.
I have the graco sound machine- it has several diferent white/ nature noises (ocean waves, womb sounds, whale noises, crickets at night, and a waterfall I think). It also plays some classical music/ lullabies and has an MP3 input and built in nightlight. It was around $40. It plugs in or uses batteries and I play it all night. It does have a timer you can set but I never do so it plays continuously.
I will say that I don't like the nightlight on it b/c it's a little loud when you push it down- like the plastic is rubbing. If M's not in a deep sleep it will startle her. So I use a different light for night feedings.
