My parents used to use the vacuum cleaner to put me to sleep as a kid, even into my toddler years.

One night they forgot to turn it off and the motor burnt out.

To this day, I sleep (and often concentrate) better with some white noise going - turning on the bedroom fan is an essential part of my night-time ritual. There's some evidence that loving white noise is linked to ADHD, but I don't think that it's predictive for a 4 month old. :P
