White noise or quiet?

My DH can't sleep without white noise. After all the noise from the kids during the day, I crave quiet.

What do you prefer?

This is us exactly. DH needs to sleep with a fan for the noise and I prefer to sleep with no sound.

I sleep terribly without white noise. And I need A LOT of white noise. Our fan in our room sounds like a jet engine! Both of our boys also have fans running in their room although I'm not sure they NEED it (well, they might now that they've had them all of their lives), but I like knowing that any other household noises are not going to wake them.

I'm a very light sleeper, too, so I'd hear every little thing if I didn't have some sort of noise. We use fans in our house, too. We have one in our bedroom and my DD has always used one, too.
