Less than 2 days into reviewing the Dohmie by Marpac sleep machine I wondered how on earth I lived without this machine in my life for so long! Let me tell you a bit about our sleep problems and how the helped our whole family sleep easier!
I always knew having a baby means getting less sleep. I mean I had already been through it with one child. I had NO idea how little sleep I would be getting when we had our second child.
The first few months seemed like standard newborn/infant sleep issues, but as my second baby got older instead of sleeping longer, he was sleeping less and less.
Most of his sleep issues it turned out were related to his FPIES. He was uncomfortable so he was having a hard time sleeping. Every time I laid him down the house went on lock down. Not only was he a light sleeper, but since he was getting such little sleep everyone was afraid to wake him up. His room shares a wall with our kitchen and another with our garage. That meant no one could do dishes, get ice, or even open the garage door without waking him up. We all felt like prisoners around his sleep schedule.
Just when I thought I had tried everything the Dohm came into my life.
The Dohm creates a natural white noise to help babies fall and stay asleep. Finally the rest of the family to sleep easier and carry on with normal household activities. The Dohm’s sound is seamless, adjustable, and continuous. It utilizes electromechanical technology to create the natural sound of rushing air, unlike other white noise machines that work on a digital loop and cut off after a set period of time.
The Dohm is lightweight, easy-to-use and can travel with you where you go. I love that it plugs into the wall and doesn’t rely on batteries like so many other sleep machine. It couldn’t be easier to use either! Simply turn it on and pick the level of noise that works for you. All you have to do to adjust the noise is turn the dohm itself.
The sound it makes is similar to the womb or my husband thinks it sounds like a long car drive. The Dohmie by Marpac Serious Sleep Baby Bundle comes with the sleep machine and a book that both my boys enjoyed reading. We always read books before bed. Then the boys get tucked in and the Dohm get’s turned on!
The Dohmie by Marpac didn’t fully solve Baby D’s sleep issues, but it was a major piece to getting there. Simply feeling like we don’t have to tip toe around when he goes to sleep really has been something the whole family is excited about. Now I just need to buy one to drown out my husband’s snoring!
The Dohmie Serious Sleep Baby Bundle by Marpac is available at baby retailers such as ToysRUS. For more information visit

Our son was such a terrible sleeper and this would have been so helpful! It sure beats running the vacuum for hours!

I am long past the age the kids didn’t sleep. They all sleep in till noon now if you let them but I would have loved this way back when. 🙂

One of my best friend’s six-month-old sons struggles with sleeping. The Dohmie by Marpac Sleep Machine is something I will be passing along to her. I wish I could just go and give her a few nights of sleep and take care of her baby….but passing this along is the next best thing!

I personally can not stand noise when I sleep, it makes me feel like I am going to miss something important in the house, but my kids need that noise. I think so they can block out all of the noise in the house.

I am so glad the Dohm is working for you! We have had one for a few years now and just love it!

I’m really happy to read this because we had a sleep machine and we killed it. Now my hubby has been bothering me to get a new one for quite a while. We sleep with two of the kids in our room and it was great for them too. I’ll need to look into this one, thanks for the review!

Both of my kids have been trained with sound machines since birth. My only problem is that their sound machines are getting old and I’m having a hard time finding a replace. Mainly because their sound machines also have projector lights on them. I wonder if I could get them to use this!

I really want to give this a try. I love the concept and even though I don’t have babies anymore, my youngest son has a hard time staying asleep — I have been on the lookout for any product to assist him in staying asleep,
