Sounds that wake up a sleeping baby

DS2 will sleep through extremely loud construction noise, but if I take a deep breath his eyes pop right open. Anyone else have any silly things that wake up babies?

I'll add:

Re: Sounds that wake up a sleeping baby

  • My kids would wake up when you opened a soda can. Sleep through storms and the cats being crazy, but open a seltzer and boom wide awake.
  • Loading the player...
  • Typing on the computer even though my apple makes like no noise.

  • Sleeps through fire works, thunder, and leaf blowers.

    Wakes from a creaky floor board, dog collar sound, or nursing bra click.

  • My kids can sleep through one of them screaming their heart out in the crib about four feet away from them for a surprisingly long span of time, but the second the buckle of the nursing pillow clicks shut, the eyes snap open and they scramble to their feet.

    Someone needs to invent a silent nursing bra - you'd be a millionaire! I'd also give stacks of cash to anyone who can invent something to help me get my arm out from under my baby after I put her in the crib. Sometimes I just stand there with one arm under her, contemplating my escape and thinking about that guy who cut his own arm off when it was trapped between two rocks. ;)
    My DS always wanted somebody's hand on his chest.  He would wake up no matter how carefully you removed your had.  We said we were going to invent a creepy arm to just lay on his chest when we walked away.  Maybe it could work for your problem?

    For us, it is the jingling of the dog collar in the mornings.  For whatever reason, DS will sleep through thunderstorms and alarm clocks, but the jingle of the dog collar is his sign to get up.

  • My kids hear dh shut the door on his way out and they are up! Nevermind the shower two feet outside their door or the espresso machine or the dog being crazy, just daddy leaving. It's like they know I'm on my own then....
    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!

    Yes! If the kids are going to sleep late then great. If not Id just as soon have them up early enough for DH to help with the tooth brushing, potty, breakfast chaos.

  • DS wakes up without fail any time I turn the dryer on...  The thing is, it's in the basement on the opposite side of the house...  How and why he wakes up to it is beyond me!!!!
