I have no advice - just big hugs - cos I know I'll be going through that same situation soon. We still use a monitor (although both pads) with DS, and when the new baby comes.. what are we going to do!?!?!?! I know my sister uses them until her kids are 2, but I think on the box the recommended age is 1? I'm not sure. I think we are just going to buy a new one for the new bub (isn't that awful!) So just wanted to let you know you are sooo not alone mate!!!
