Monitors

[tubbles]

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to get everyone's opinions on baby monitors. There are sooo many its hard to figure out what one to get

I was thinking of getting one with video, so I could see if the bub was stirring. Does anyone know if these are any good, or overrated?

Tubbles - I have an Angelcare one at home (In Perth) which I plan on picking up and bringing back here for when bubs is born. It's not got video (which I think is a bit much personally) but it has the movement sensor thing for under the cot mattress to give you peace of mind. I got mine off ebay for a bargain They are quite expensive, but I think worth it.

We too have the angelcare sound and movement monitor. At night I don't use sound anymore but always use the movement. Certainly worth the peace of mind, especially when DD had a cold and her breathing was a bit harder. I don't think there is a need for video, but if it is what will work for you, go for it!

Good luck

we also have the Angelcare sound and movement monitor here too, recommend it highly, it doesnt have video but has the sensor pad things and room tempreture etc, like the others have mentioned. i'm even thinking about getting a second one for bub number 2. totally worth the money.

Does anyone know if that monitor is on special at Target? I think I remember reading a post somewhere, where someone picked it up from Target on special. I have found it online for 289 with the two monitors, but if I can pick it up for a similar price from Target and actually walk away with it in my hand, that would be better!

i'm pretty sure i saw the angelcare one at target on special.. we just bought the lcd screen one though from target. My DH just HAD to have it. We have been given nearly all our baby stuff second hand and he really really is into gadgets. I loved the idea of the angel care one but he just could not go past the lcd screen he got so excited like a 5 year old...
