I would like to get a video monitor for our baby daughter as we are planning to move her into her own room very soon.
I have looked up different monitors but it's a minefield! I just want the best there is and I don't mind if it costs more, can anyone recommend a good video monitor?.
Thanks, Leah.
Answer
Anything you choose, I would not recommend anything wireless. This gives thief's a clear view in to your baby's room. The local news here did a big story on that recently. I know this drives up the costs but its better to be safe than sorry.

Buying a Video Monitor for your baby?

Hello moms (and dads)
The time has come where my son has outgrown his bassinet and he is moving to the nursery. He is four months old. Like all parents, I have fears. I feel like my fears are exaggerated as I have experienced unexpected deaths of younger love ones in the past couple of years
I figured why not try to help myself breathe easier and purchase a video monitor? Whether it makes a difference in his sleeping health or not, if I can rest easier maybe its worth something. My non-parent friends think I am crazy for wanting this.
What were your experiences with a video monitor? Did it help you?
thanks!!!!!

It's incredibly helpful, and I honestly don't know what I would've done without it, especially when I was worrying about SIDS and other sleeping related deaths (or crib deaths). The bottom line is a video monitor can't really hurt you, only help you. There really are no downsides. Trust me, when your non-parent friends become parents, they'll understand.
Now that my older two are a little older (2 and 3) we use their old video monitors in their playroom, so if I need to run and check on my youngest or put a load of laundry in, etc. I can still see that they're safe. The video monitor has MANY other uses, beyond the infant years.
I recommend getting the Summer Infant Complete Coverage monitor. It's the one we have, and I absolutely love it (and I've tried about 5 other brands lol). http://www.target.com/Summer-Infant-Complete-Coverage-Handheld/dp/B001N44UVW/ref=br_1_6?ie=UTF8&id=Summer%20Infant%20Complete%20Coverage%20Handheld&node=1041936&searchSize=30&searchView=grid3&searchPage=1&sr=1-6&qid=1281368534&rh=&searchBinNameList=target_com_category-bin%2Cstyle_name%2Ctarget_com_brand-bin%2Ctarget_com_primary_color-bin%2Cprice&searchRank=pmrank&frombrowse=1
