mine is occasionally saying "no signal" what is going on?!? Should I return it for another one???
Answer
I don't have one, but my BFF does and I believe she said her cordless phone and her laptop make hers do that if its too close together, but if you know that's not the case, I would definitely bring it back and try another one!
Sorry my answer didn't appeal to someone, but just for the record...you do what's best for you and your baby hon, I have a regular monitor and plan on investing in the video one for my next one as my house is pretty big (over 4k sq ft.) and sometimes I'm downstairs and the nursery is upstairs so to NOT have a monitor would be INSANE, so that advice is a bit bogus!!!

Are plain, old baby monitors adequate?

I'm being a bit proactive and have decided to educate myself on all these baby gadgets. I had a pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage, so even though I was only pregnant a short time, I remember how stressed I was trying to figure out all of this stuff.
So my question is... I thought baby monitors were a dime a dozen. Never knew there were motion sensors, 49 mhz and 900 mhz, video, laptop viewable, etc etc etc. The reviews saying how some mother's felt their babies lives were saved by the motion sensors got me into "paranoid-mommy-to-be" mode. When I was little, everyone had those Graco, lights when the baby makes noise versions. Does anyone find that these are perfectly adequate for their babies, or are the motion sensors/video models really a better choice? Keeping in mind that I'm trying to restrain myself from one day spending thousands of dollars on things a baby will use for a year. :)
Thank you!

I didn't use one - we live in an apartment, were never going to be that far from the baby, I'm skeptical about gagetry, and I had a sixth sense that alerted me whenever my little one had a hiccup in the next room.
If I'd had a big house I might have gotten a simple monitor, but I think a lot of these things are designed to separate you from your wallet ...and will surely rob you of more sleep than you can afford in general.
Just my $.02 - and I know how it feels to be prenatally paranoid. I'm sure I had plenty of my own issues although this wasn't one of mine. :)
