A baby monitor is def the go, if he's not happy with the phone then i'd tell him to pop into target or somewhere and pick one up on special, most these days come with lights aswell so if he's worried about not hearing/seeing whats going on.
I am another for suggesting the baby monitor. One tip is try not to have it RIGHT near their beds because every little sniffle, snore, wriggle will be picked up. Try it on the other side of their room. It's like someone on a PA system next to your bed if put too close to them! I was petrified when DD actually slept in her cot that I wouldn't hear her wake and only used the monitor for one night. It was so damn loud lol. She's literally only 5 meters away though.
Thanks ladies. Monitor is definitely the go. Did I mention that our girls are 3 and 1.5 years old? I'm sure I will have to be shuffling the 3 year old back to her bed in the middle of the night but DD2 sleeps through the night now no problems.
