Baby MOnitors - which one do you use

[feeb]

If it helps you relax and be comfortable baby is ok then its worth the money in my opinion.

You can wake up and look at handset and see the swinging pendulum and know baby is breathing and if baby crys you can see how much baby is crying by how many bars come up. Can also check temp of room just by looking at handset

We have the Tommee Tippee Sensor one - very similar to the angelcare one. I know Baby Bunting have on sale until the end of this weekend for $159 of if you wait until target have a baby sale they are usually about $150

The Tommee Tippee one is great, it has a green light on the monitor and parents unit that flashes so you know bubs is breathing and the alarm goes off in 20 seconds if no movement detected. Also, you can activate it so you can actually hear a 'tic' with each breath if you want too. It also has a night light and room temperature

Its super sensitive too, we can also hear bubs fart - LOL

I would definately recommend this one too

I dont see that there would be a problem with going second hand......but like feebs, its your peace of mind and comfort.....if youre anything like me, for the first few weeks you will be constantly checking to see if the monitor is working properly lol

We have angel care sound and movement monitor with 2 pads and 2 handsets too, and i love it! best money we spent! Nae i also looked at some on ebay but they went for almost the same price as new on sale so i just got new. alot of babies things seem to hold there value so you could sell it after you've finished with it.
i could just sleep better at night knowing an alram would sound if something happened to my bub, the room temp was also super handy.

Hey everyone,

Thank you all SOOO much for your posts and your own experiences with the monitors. DH and I went to baby bunting after our scan on thurs and I made him walk around and really look at the different things I have been thinking about.

Came to the monitor section and I showed him all the different brands and he asked which one it was that I wanted. I showed him and he just about fell over when he saw the price. Then a really lovely assistant came over and we all got talking and they had the brand new digital angelcare monitor (two handsets) on special for the same price as the other one. DH grumbled about how he didn't have enough money so I piped up and explained that I had been putting my wages aside for this very thing, this is what my baby savings is for to buy the things we want to get for the baby.

SO I brought our very first item for this baby Its my first baby buy this pregnancy I am SOOOO excited.

Thanks again everyone
