I have a family history of sleep struggle, including a father who has a CPAP machine. This is what I do for sleep:
Probably not the answer you want to hear, but do you use a white noise machine? I have a neighbor whose dogs bark all night long, and I finally picked one of these up on Amazon and it helps keep me sane. Lecteofan
I second and third all the previous comments that suggest contacting your community board, city councilman and other elected officials.
Since you're the parent of a newborn, you need immediate help to improve the situation. So I suggest getting a white noise sound machine to help you and the kids sleep. Here's one I found on [Amazon]
(https://www.amazon.com/Adaptive-Sound-Technologies-LectroFan-Non-Looping/product-reviews/B00E6D6LQY) but there seem to be many good options. Good luck!
Not sure if you’re set on music, but Lectrofan has 10 fan sounds and 10 colored noise sounds (white, brown, etc) - it has the option to turn on and play forever or you can set it for an hour if you want.
I'm having motherfucking flashbacks goddamn.
Sounds just like the room mate I kicked out of MY apt last night because he wanted to stay an extra day because he's tired oh boo hoo.
Oh! And about the light! I too am a very light sleeper! I have all the good suggestions for you, friend!!! So, I have a noise maker.

Best one on the market, changed my gd life. My fiance snores. Even when she is quite loud, I just put it all the way up, right next to my head and I can sleep. Not the most comfortable way to sleep but I can still sleep!
I wear earplugs. Have since I was 11.
AAAND if I need to I wear a sleep mask. Soft thing. Takes a bit to get used to but it's so nice.
I use it every night because my fiance's fan light in her computer is bright green! So bright I can see it a bit through my eyelids! But it's okay because I have my nice mask!
God the more I read the more I nod my head. Mine was the same! Just seeing him made me seethe.
Now I would probably care some if he died. But I've had room mates where I did feel this way about. Bye.
He also chases after my fiance's exes and tries to run her friends off. So fucked.
One time he acted like her being in the hospital was an inconvenience and actually was arguing with me over text while I sat next to her hospital bed. And recently, my dog split her head open on the corner of a wall when she got scared and he SIGHED. Like this long sigh!! I couldn't believe it. Since that happened I have not been able to forgive him. We had to take her to an after hours vet because her poor head was POURING blood. Makes me sick to remember.
Who feels that way about an innocent animal? A bad person that I don't want to associate with anymore, that's who. Toxic, selfish fuck.
No. Jesus that’s even more expensive.
I have these:

I bought a bunch, five and returned four when we broke our lease and moved. It was easy.
I hope it gives you some peace. I feel your pain.
So I just moved to a new apartment yesterday in the same apartment complex. The building is brand new and the apartment is enormous. I knew it was too good to be true! I can hear literally everything. I can tell you exactly what my neighbors are watching and listen along with them. I can hear every time someone goes up and down the stairs. I had to call the leasing office to complain about the noise coming from above. Turns out they were cheerleaders practicing tumbling!
I need noise maker and reduction recommendations to drown this all out. My dog and I stressed and tired!!. I found this noise maker on amazon and thinking of buying two. Then I read tapestries or cloth on the wall really helps. I’m also going to get fans to go with the noise makers
Any other ideas??? I’m regretting my huge brand new apartment now and want my 30 year old 600 sq ft closet back!!:( I guess they don’t make them like they used to.

To drown out the noise in your room, the noise machine(s) would need to be in the room(s) where other people are, so it's going to depend a lot on what they like. Some people like cyclical fan noises, others like non-repeating white noise, others like deep humming or reverberation, but lots of people find such noises to be annoying or worse.
I personally love this thing: https://smile.amazon.com/Adaptive-Sound-Technologies-LectroFan-Non-Looping/dp/B00E6D6LQY/
I used it for years to drown out the sound of my cats meowing and scratching at the door. I found one of the settings on that machine blocked out most noise from outside the room and after an adjustment period I stopped really listening to the noise itself, it sorta dropped into the background.
The sound of it bothers my current NP so badly that she had to rush from the room after less than ten seconds. So be prepared for the possibility that no noisemaker is going to be a good option.
You may try instead to do some basic sound proofing. Soundproofing a room is expensive and labor intensive, but you can do a lot on the cheap to soundproof your bed itself to eliminate or reduce the squeaking/creaking/thumping. I bought a pack of rubber door jams and set them at strategic contact points between the base of our bed and the bed frame, which quiets all but the most violent of rocking motions. What works for you is going to depend a lot on your situation- both in how you have sex and what you're having sex on.
I personally use the Lectrofan . I had a Dohm sound machine before, but since it's mechanical, it eventually became too quiet. The Lectrofan is smaller, has a better variety of noises, and can get much louder if necessary. It's easier to travel with too.
I have 2 poodle mixes, and I also work from home, and these guys also bark at every freakin' noise in the apartment hallway. After years of trial and error, here is what works best for me; hopefully it'll work for you too.
They get loud, and I generally sleep through shit all the time when it's on. I'd just check Amazon sales they usually go on sale pretty often.

Is the one we got, I think we paid like $35.
Try a white noise machine instead of headphones maybe? I can't hear conversations or the tv in the next room with this one.

I think you need to spend $50 to get a good dedicated white noise machine. The LectroFan here is very highly recommended, has lots of options (different fan noises as well as different white noises), and is pretty compact. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E6D6LQY?tag=thewire06-20&linkCode=xm2&ascsubtag=AwEAAAAAAAAAAOGr
If you want to keep using the YouTube videos, YouTube Premium is actually a decent service. For $15 a month you get the ability to download videos, but also no ads and YouTube Music (basically like Spotify). So if you watch a lot of YouTube, your kid is getting to the age where they might get some more screen time, and you're already paying for a music streaming service, it can be very worth it.
Night shifter for almost 4 years here. Lots of good advice here. To emphasize and adding some more:

It’s pricey but worth it if you’re gonna be on this shift for a while. It uses randomly generated white noise instead of repetitive sound loops. The loops in cheaper machines are actually bad sometimes. I can hear the patterns and start involuntarily listening for them when I should be falling asleep.
different dosages and release schedules till you find one that works.
DON’T expect melatonin to work like a sleeping pill that knocks you out hard! It’s not that. You want something that isn’t habit-forming and basically makes you sleep like you would at night. Not drug you into a coma.
-Put your phone on silent. Do whatever you have to do so that the screen doesn’t light up when you get a text or whatever. Even through your eyelids, that light can trigger a cortisol rush and boom — you’re awake. Remember, you already have some cortisol on board. That light makes your body think the sun just came up and you don’t have enough melatonin to drag you back to sleep like you would at night.
-Drink plenty of fluids during your shift, but cut off all fluid intake early enough that you won’t wake up having to pee in the middle of the day. Same thing as above. Often, once you’re up you’re up and you don’t have enough mela to get you back to sleep.
-If you have a problem with waking up hungry, have a little snack before going to sleep. But not fruit or soup or anything with a lot of liquid in it if you have the above problem.
-If you have people in your life, insist that they respect your need to sleep and how difficult it is for you. To put it in perspective, when they wake you up at 12:00 to go shopping with them or ask you where the remote is, ask them how they think it would feel if you woke them up at 2:00am to do the same. And then turned on the light and left it on. Because that’s what is happening to your body when they do it.
You’re gonna struggle sometimes. It comes and goes for me, even with taking most of the precautions above. Just be patient and don’t get anxious because anxiety kills sleep quality (anxiety also makes us manufacture cortisol).
Best of luck! I hope you’re able to crack the code!
We have been using this sound machine and it gets really loud for us!
Put this guy outside your door. Crank it up.
A sound machine is a must! I love my lectrofan so much, we have 2. Adaptive Sound Technologies LectroFan High Fidelity White Noise Sound Machine with 20 Unique Non-Looping Fan and White Noise Sounds and Sleep Timer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E6D6LQY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_IMcUCbW93XSAB
White noise, my friend. (There's also pink noise and brown noise, which is my favorite)
You could buy a noise machine:
Or if you're cheap like me, just set up some speakers with your laptop and use http://simplynoise.com
They make sound pillows.
They also make pillow speakers.
Of several styles.
They make sleep headbands with speakers.
Then there's noise machines.
I use a fan. lol
If you go for one of those other things, I'd shop around a bit. Those were just the first I found as an example. Not sure of quality.
Def recommend the LectroFan. Although now I have to travel with it because the silence in hotel rooms is deafening. I've heard you can detect the "loop noise" on the one you posted.

If you don't have this white noise machine, buy it. Move on. The others are toys compared to this.

Adaptive Sound Technologies... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E6D6LQY?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
We bought and really like this one. Has a USB plug so you can use AC with a wall adapter or an external battery. Doesn't have an internal battery though. It's truly continuous and doesn't loop. Lots of different white (brown, etc...) And fan types.

Missed it myself as we were over there for a show already, but we have no problem hearing a lot of their events all the way in South Walkerville. I'm glad you have such a great attitude about noise pollution though, I guess. Hah
Anyway, if you ever want a white noise machine instead of having to run actual fans, this is the best one I know of
It's kind of pricey for what it is, but the best part is it can get LOUD, so it really masks noise. Maybe not fireworks so much, but the vast majority of other stuff depending on how close you sleep to it. It has one setting that basically sounds like a regular box fan.
As someone with two dogs and a cat in a small place, I understand where you're coming from. I am sensitive to noise, especially at night.
I purchased a LectroFan noise machine to use at night, but you could also use it during the day. There are multiple sounds to choose from and the volume is adjustable.
Purchase a few rugs for the floors to help minimize the noise from the nails. You could also look into the placement of her water dish. When my pets noisily clean themselves next to me, I make a "tsh-tsh" sound and they'll either stop or move to another area to continue.
You should really look at your own health situation and speak to a doctor/therapist about this. I know when I'm experiencing strong emotions or anxiety, the sound sensitivity is more present and frustrating. It seems like you have been struggling lately and it's okay to experience frustration, but you have to remind yourself that your pet isn't doing this on purpose and you can't take out your frustration on her.
I hope things get better for you.
Have you tried a noise machine? I have this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E6D6LQY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
White noise generator.
Perhaps counterintuitive, but a whitenoise device may be helpful if you can’t block it. I have several and have walked out of rooms where one was on only to discover the neighbor is outside with their chainsaw or a car with it’s bass thumping is parked out front. I highly recommend the LectroFan, they make an even smaller version that is $20 cheaper.
I've actually read (though not sure if true) that more melatonin will actually worsen the situation.
The ideal dose is 0.5 to 1.0mg as I understand it.
MUCH more important though, darkness. It should be BLACK where he sleeps.
For 2-3 hours before trying to go to bed he should avoid all lights unless they're a very warm color. Blue light will affect his circadian rhythm. This is the case even in many blind people.
Key points:
this thing----> LectroFan
why would your bf be opposed to good white noise?
oh, and don't go with the half price cheaper alternative... I did and then had to buy this because it's not loud.
I got this one: https://www.amazon.com/LectroFan-Fidelity-Machine-Unique-Non-Looping/dp/B00E6D6LQY
Like the flexibility with many different white noises (the names are funny, I'm personally looking forward to cinnamon noise), and fan noises.
The same brand has one specifically for infants, which can be controlled with an app and has a night-light. It's an extra $20, which doesn't seem worth it to me, but letting you know.
There are several options in the $20 range instead (the one I linked to is $50), if you don't care about the different sound options. You're on your own however in picking between them haha
So, I just heard this white noise machine in an office waiting room and honestly it was amazing.
If you want one that helps for sleep, you actually probably want Brown Noise. It has lower frequencies than white noise, and I think there are studies that those lower frequencies genuinely help with sleep.
The link I posted has a great, deep, brown noise setting that makes you feel like you're on a private jet over a tropical ocean and have just taken your first Valium.
Important: do no confuse with the brown note.
An Extra layer of drywall wont help.

They produce a white noise that can help you sleep. I have tinnitus and use them. Better than trying to sleep with earphones on. I can't imagine dealing with wires connected to my head for the rest of my life while I sleep. Understand what I mean?

Buy this, it works well.White Noise
Here are mine:
Hope this helps somebody!
Edit: added a few more after the Spectra.
I couldn't wait and ordered one too. So it looks like we will both be saying what we think of them.
Is this the one you got? This is mine. http://www.amazon.com/LectroFan-Sound-White-Noise-Machine/dp/B00E6D6LQY/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1415814384&sr=1-1
I had a type of tinnitus that was two tones alternating irregularly. Very distracting. i used to crank up the stereo when I was commuting. Not sure if that was the cause but it calmed down when I got more responsible with the volume. I did use a white noise machine and it helped when the problem was severe. I used the sound of rushing air very softly and it was enough to mask the tinnitus. This is the one I used. I see there are cheaper ones but I know this one works well:
