The last 3 nights DS's sound and movement monitor has beeped (the warning beep) 2 or 3 times per night.
Gives me a heart attack each time. It has already done it once tonight already so I'm hoping that there wont be anymore. When i go in there he is breathing but very softly. I think he just holds his breath. I could not imagine not having the monitor now, for peace of mind it is amazing. Does anyone else have this happen often? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Ours used to do it on occasion, I suspect coz I had lil miss propped up a little so the sensor lost contact with her movements.
If I were you I'd check the monitor and make sure its all sitting properly and if it is, I'd take DS to the GP and get him checked over just in case. It's probably just a monitor malfunction or the monitor being hypersensitive, but better to be sure! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

We had ours do the single beep a couple of times when he was really little and it was because I had changed his bedding and not checked that the pads were in the centre of the cot anymore and he had rolled over to the opposite side, so it was a bit of a false alarm but reassuring to know that it works.

It went off 3 times again last night. I will check the sensor pads today. I also still have his cot propped up from when he had a cold so I will take the books away as it may be a combination of both.
When he was really little the full alarm went off twice one night. We rushed in and he was fine. We then adjusted the sensor and it has been ok since (until now). I need to take DS to the doc next week actually so I will mention it then. Thank you  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| We had the same problem with our Tommee Tippee Ultimate Reassurance Monitor beeping for no reason . We finally figured out that it was because Ava was lying on her side, and because she is so small the monitor didnt detect her breathing. It doesnt happen when she is lying on her back. |

| we had the same problem with our angelcare monitor, shifting the sensor pads made a huge difference. I totally undesrtand that heart attack moment! Hope its improved for you |
