Newborn baby that won't stop crying no matter what you do? Try this.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    There isn't much to this trick. Jut turn the TV onto the cable channel so there's the snowy picture and that fuzzy white noise.

  2. Step 2

    Lay the baby near the TV so they can hear it well.

  3. Step 3

    It can often quiet a crying baby when nothing else does. The reason is because the sound of the TV's white noise is very similar to the sound the baby hears in utero of the mother's blood being pumped through her body. It's a comforting sound for them.
