Is a newborn baby really noisy for neighbours?

Question

My neighbour is very noisy with music playing till the early hours.

I'm 34 weeks pregnant.

When I have the baby will the crying be really loud for the neighbour? Just thinking about my revenge...!

Answer 1

When I first had my daughter, I was concerned that her crying would bother our neighbor. Our walls are very thin. Then I realized that if that type of noise bothered them that was on them. It's a baby. However if you are looking at it like revenge then yeah I think you got have the perfect revenge. Sounds like they might now be real family type neighbors so when they are trying to sleep and can't because of a baby crying it will probably bug them. So you scored. Paybacks are a Bi***. right?

Answer 2

yes put the babys cot on there wall

Answer 3

I hope so wait till 3 in the morning then wake your baby go girl go

Answer 4

Every baby is different but lets pray for a loud baby.  I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Answer 5

Oh man isn't that the worst.  It seemed whenever I lived in an apt, I'd live beside people that played loud bass.  UGG.  Also, it always seems no matter where I move my neighbors never leave.  I wonder how people pay their bills?

Babies can be loud for neighbors... but their cries probably wont carry as much as music (mostly b/c of the vibrations, lower tones carry more).  To maximize revenge, keep windows open during periods of extreme fussiness :)

Answer 6

Lol, it depends on the baby!  Some cry a lot and others are quiet.  I hope for your sake the music doesn't keep your baby awake too much!    

Answer 7

Babies get used to what is standard in their environment.  Someone told me to vacuum all the time when I had my first, while she was sleeping and napping, and I did and she can sleep through anything.  My second I would always shish everyone and she is the lightest sleeper.

Also most counties have a noise ordinace.  Just report him.

Answer 8

most babies can take out the loudest of any music without really trying...and best of all, they cant do sod all about it, good luck

Answer 9

My neighbors are the same--it drives me nuts!

I'm not sure if they can hear my son, but the thought of Little Man keeping them up is revenge in itself! :)

Answer 10

I'd be praying for a loud baby if I were you:)

Loud neighbors are the worst. My husband and I are dealing with some loud neighbors too, we called the cops the other night. Haha. They were underage and having a loud party at 1:30am so we figured we would bust them. We're hoping to have them kicked out before the baby comes, or else they'll be dealing with loud baby revenge too:)

Answer 11

if you let them cry yeah!

My upstairs neighbours (new) are terribly selfish

They have wooden floors and stomp about at all hours and let their child run his toy cars over the floor right above our bedroom from 6am. so yes, sometimes we leave our baby to scream for a bit (he feeds better that way too!)
