AngelCare Monitors?

Did anyone use one of the motion monitors? Do you recommend them?

We have a video monitor and decided to skip the movement monitor for DD since everything I read said that it doesn't actually prevent SIDS. But I was constantly paranoid and thought that it might help me sleep better when #2 comes along.

So for those who used it, were you happy with it? Do you think it actually works?

  • We had one. Everything I read and all the pedis I worked with said it didn't prevent SIDS. But DH's cousin swears it saved her baby. It went off and they found him not breathing and were able to save him. So DH insisted on having one and I grew to like th

  • I thought I would love the AngelCare monitor, but I actually think it made me more paranoid. We had a lot of false alarms despite following the directions to a T, playing with the sensitivity, etc. B slept in our room until she was 4 or 5 months, in the R
