A quick question about monitors
I am using the Tomy walkabout mini monitor at the moment, DD is sleeping in her own room and seems very happy about it, DH and I sleep in our room and use the monitors, my question is how long did you use your monitors for?? We don't use the monitors through the day, we just check her frequently and really only use them through the night. |

We have the Angelcare monitor and I still turn the base unit on every time he is in bed (just in case he stops breathing: yes, I'm paranoid!) but don't really use my end unless I have the music on and I won't hear him wake up or something. I don't even use it at night as his room is really close to ours and I always hear him anyway. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I have a monitor, and really only use it if DH and I are outside while Luke is sleeping. During the day around the house I don't use it, just check him every now and then, and at night we don't use it at all - I hear him when he wakes overnight. ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids

We have an Angelcare monitor and I still use it any time Gina is asleep in her cot. I'm only planning to stop once bub #2 is here and we need to use the monitor for her. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

We have an angelcare monitor and I still use it all the time, is hard for me to hear him from our lounge if he just wakes up (if he cries I can hear him) and the same at night, we have cats so his door is always closed so when he wakes up babbling I like to hear it so I can go get his bottle before he gets worked up. -------------
