To go along with the wonderful Baby Got Colic video/sound, I wanted to share another winner I discovered. It's called "My Shush" app.
I saw on a FB mommy group someone mentioned a device called "The Baby Shusher". I looked it up and it has great reviews. My baby responds well to loud shushing in his ear, but man, it gets to be really exhausting after a few minutes and my lips go numb! I thought about buying the Shusher, but it's $35. They have portable sound machines that do the same thing but the one was only $9!!! It didn't have the shush option though.
So I decided to search the App Store (on my iPhone) and sure enough, there were options. I downloaded the free one "My Shush" and it's been great. It takes a 5 second recording of YOUR shush, and loops it so it continuously plays until you choose to stop it. You might think it's lazy, but if your baby likes the loud shush sound, you know how tiring it can get after a few minutes.
The other nice thing about this is it can run in the background, so you can still use your phone and even turn off the screen so it eats less battery life. It took a few tries to get it to turn out the way I wanted, like stopping early to get a pause between your shush, but it's free! And it works great for baby boy!

I posted this on another thread too, I LOVE it. Usually I record a fast/loud shush when baby is fussy, then I re-record a slow/quiet shush when he's settling down. I even put the phone down next to him for the first 10 minutes he's asleep to help him go into a deeper sleep. Love that app!
Oh, also I once recorded DB crying and played it back to him (sort of on accident) and it was hilarious. His eyes got super big like "what the heck is that??"

Oops! Sorry for the duplicate post. I never get to sit down and read through these threads much anymore, but I wanted to share in case it was helpful to anyone else.
