I have recently bought the most amazing alarm clock that has a button which gives you the sound of falling rain for either 10 minutes, 30 minutes or an hour depending on choice.

It has transformed the way I sleep (and has even seemed to stop Fussy's snoring - or at least it has stopped me being disturbed by it). If you can get something like that I can really recommend it - apparently any kind of white noise will help as well - if I wake in the night I use it too, but most of the time, I don't even wake in the night these days.
