21st Century Heartbeat Music Therapy

We got a CD in the baby class. It's an original recording of classic nursery songs set to a real human heartbeat. According to the CD jacket, it's proven by research to calm babies and stop crying.

One night, we listened to it. We could hear the heartbeat in the songs. When we listened to Mary Had A Little Lamb, Avram said it should be "Mary had a pink i-phone, pink i-phone, pink i-phone" these days. It makes sense. Times have changed. Those songs could change too, but I like original one.

Though I like original songs, I wonder if the father in Hush Little Baby spoils the baby too much.
The father buys many things everytime his baby cries. When does the baby learn patience?

I learned one thing from this CD quickly. It is that this CD works for Avram very well. It already worked. He would fall asleep earlier than our baby and wouldn't wake up for her at midnight.
Now we have to talk about the day schedule and who stays up with the baby every night.
