My husband and I still totally rely on our baby’s monitor to sleep well. In fact, we really sleep better than we did pre-baby! But let me explain…

The monitor allows us to sleep better than we did before we had our baby because we can hear the sound machine through it, playing in our baby’s nursery.  I sleep better with white noise — we both do — and we can hear our son’s DEX Sound Machine through the monitor next to our bed, playing ocean sounds and seagulls, or thunder and the sounds of a summer night all night long.  It’s soothing and completely addictive!  Plus, because we can hear the sound machine, we know we can hear our son cry if he were to, which allows us such peace of mind that we are able to sleep like babies – like our baby!

These are our favorite baby monitors on the market right now:

1. VTech Safe & Sound Digital Audio Monitor

This is the monitor we have and we just love it because it’s simple, but completely reliable and doesn’t “click” at all. Plus we love the two-way audio feature.

2. VTech Safe & Sound Color Video/Audio Monitor with 2 Cameras

 

3. Levana KeeraTM 3.5 Inch Pan/Tilt/Zoom Digital Baby Video Monitor

 

4. Phillips Avent DECT Baby Monitor with Temperature Sensor and Night Mode

 

5. Motorola MBP33S Woreless Video Baby Monitor with 2.8 Inch Color LCD, Zoom and Enhanced Two-Way Audio
