New Baby? 5 Tips For A Date Night At Home

New Baby Tips For A Date Night At Home

Having a new baby can put a strain on even the closest relationship. 

This is especially true during the fourth trimester when your baby will want to be with you at all times, even when she’s asleep. 

Many couples find it challenging to maintain their relationship under these conditions.

 

By the end of the day, they’re totally touched out, sleep-deprived and exhausted. 

Hardly a recipe for romance.

If that sounds like you, don’t worry. Oricom is here to remind you why you fell in love with your partner in the first place.

With the help of Oricom’s Secure745 4.3″ Digital Video Baby Monitor with Motorised Pan/Tilt Camera, you can enjoy a fun date night at home. 

5 things you’ll need for a successful date night at home

Your date night can be as low-key or glamorous as you like. 

If you want to spend hours getting Insta-ready for date night, go right ahead. If you’d rather show up to the date in loungewear, that’s fine too. 

Whether you’re planning a Michelin Star-worthy meal or a selection of your favorite snacks, here are 5 things you’ll need for a successful date night at home:

#1: Patience

5 Tips For A Date Night At Home

If you’re opting for a date night at home, you need to make peace with the fact it might be interrupted. 

Your baby might take ages to settle or wake for a few feeds during the evening. On the bright side, she might sleep right through and leave you to enjoy your date. 

Babies are unpredictable so accept that interruptions are inevitable. One day, your baby will sleep better, and you’ll get to spend plenty of time together without interruptions. But, for now, this is your reality. 

You can’t blame your baby for wanting to hang out with her two favorite people in the world, can you?

#2: A reliable baby monitor 

If you can see your baby is safe and sound, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your evening. 

Oricom is Australia’s favorite baby monitor brand and the new Secure745 4.3″ Digital Video Baby Monitor with Motorised Pan/Tilt Camera is the ideal monitor for your home. 

Oricom Digital Video Baby Monitor

The large 4.3” color LCD display makes it easy to keep an eye on your baby. The stylish monitor boasts various high-quality features to support the award-winning excellence we’ve come to expect from Oricom Baby Care.

Through its motorized camera unit, the Secure745 offers motion detection with an audible alarm.

That means you don’t need to spend all evening staring at the monitor; instead, you can focus on your partner. An alarm will sound if and when motion is detected, allowing you to respond immediately to your baby’s needs.

This modern baby monitor also features white noise and lullabies to help your baby settle quickly to sleep. Selections include womb sounds and vacuum cleaner noise, both of which are comforting to newborns. 

The Secure745 provides optimum long-range clarity with maximum security. It comes with baby-friendly night vision, which means you can see your child clearly, even when the nursery is dark. The Secure745 even tracks the room temperature so you can rest easy, knowing your baby is in a safe environment. 

The Secure745 is available for a special price of $199. Save $100 with FREE SHIPPING Australia Wide. Order your Secure745 today.

#3: A change from the ordinary 

If you spend most evenings slumped in front of the television together, you’ll want to do something different to make your date night stand out. 

5 Tips For A Date Night At Home

The date night is for both of you, so pick something you’ll both enjoy. It could be a movie; choose it in advance, so you don’t spend all night scrolling through all the options. You might decide on the takeaway from your favorite restaurant or one you’ve heard rave reviews about. 

If you usually eat in front of the TV, make the date night special. Why not sit at the dining table and enjoy some face-to-face conversation? Dust off the candles and ramp up the romance. 

#4: Anticipation

5 Tips For A Date Night At Home

Half the fun of a date is in the build-up. Plan your date night in advance and give yourself time to prepare. Send your partner texts during the day, and say how much you’re looking forward to spending some time together. 

It might be a low-key date night, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy preparing for it.

Decide what you’re going to wear, and eat, and do – just like you did before one of your earliest dates. 

#5: Realistic expectations 

Oricom Digital Video Baby Monitor

Your relationship might have evolved since you became parents. There are more demands on your time, and you possibly have fewer opportunities to be together. One date night isn’t going to change that, but it can help you to reconnect. 

A low-key date night at home can help you to feel closer to each other. It can also make you both feel more valued and loved. And it can remind you just what you love about each other. 

You might spend all evening running back and forth to feed your baby, or you might spend it gazing into your partner’s eyes without so much as a peep from upstairs. It doesn’t matter. 

What matters is what the date night signifies: you both value and prioritise your relationship, even when you’re busy looking after your baby. 

A baby monitor you can trust

oricom logoOricom’s Secure745 is a baby monitor you can depend on to keep your baby safe. It will alert you to movement, temperature changes, and your baby’s cries. 

Oricom is the expert in communication and monitoring. With your family’s needs in mind, Oricom is committed to quality, performance, and customer service. 

Oricom Digital Video Baby Monitor

The Secure745 is a reliable baby monitor that will give you the peace of mind you need to enjoy your evening. 

The large 4.3” digital video baby monitor features fully motorized movement, controlled through the parent unit, for better visibility in the nursery. 

Other key features include motion detection and alert, room temperature display, infrared night-vision capability, lullabies, and white noise.
