Baby Monitors


I am looking at baby monitors and basically we want one with a screen so u can see the baby as well as hear them.
There are quite a few on the market & I dont know which to go for!

Anyone here got one? or reccommend any particular brands?

I decided against one of those - they seem expensive and a little unecessary. You arent going to watch the screen the whole time, only check it every now and then which is the same as getting up and going to check on the baby. It is a nice idea, but too expensive! I went for a BT 150 monitor, which has temperture alarm and plays music with a night light.

I was going to buy one of the camera monitors by Summer, but in the end decided against it for similar reasons. In the end I bought a Tomy classic one.

Hmmm I still really like the idea of having one!
When babys asleep upstairs during the day it will be easier to keep an eye on her!!
Plus my mum n dad are buying it for us

I had a great one with third babs, it had a movement monitor pad on it also, so if babs stops movement (even heartbeat) then the alarm will sound, it was great as always been dead worried at night, thinking oh is he breathing, is he ok... PARANOID

It is called Angel Care, brilliant, bit exspensive but worth it... gonna buy another for this baby, it also work as a monitor where you can take parent bit downstair and listen for babs (alarm also sounds on this bit).
