Ladies, I am asking for advice again
we got a baby monitor from my Father's Work Shower (my Dad's work threw him a Grand Daddy Shower at work, how sweet was that???  )
Anyway, we got a baby monitor which we do need. I have a 2 story home, so I really wanted one.
We go this:

Is this a good one? I really want a good one and I am thinking of returning it and getting a better one.
What would you ladies suggest?

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
I am not sure about the one you got. I do not know anything about it but I have this one (about $50) and it is good. I have no compliants, but I only have a ranch
ETA: it is made by Sony

We have one of these, too. I really like it. It has good range, and the sound is really clear.

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
We have a graco one, we like it because it has two receivers. It works from DS' bedroom to DH's garage.
And that is SO cute with your dad's work
And you are SUCH a cute and happy preggo! I love your belly shots

So cute about them throwing your dad a shower!
Did you register for a video monitor? That's what I swear by - and use all the time. It's the Summer Handheld.

I have this one too and LOVE it!! One of the things I love about it compared to the other ones is that it has a "sound-activated" feature so that you only hear noise in the room made by the baby (or music etc that you have in the room) rather than the "hum" of the room and cars going by, etc.

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
I don't know anything about that monitor but I have 2 summer monitors. 1 is a video and one is a regular audio and they are both great.

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
honestly, I have the private Fischer Price monitor that cost around $55.00 and it's excellent. No static, interference, etc.

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
I have the Graco and I recently purchased the Summer Handheld video monitor. Both work very well, but since I have purchased the video monitor I can't imagine using anything else. I love being able to see my DS when I am in another room.

same here. as a matter of fact, it's so good that sometimes i think it's TOO sensitive - i can literally hear every breath ds takes at night, and it's not like he's even that close to the monitor base. no static or interference or anything.

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
Thank you Ladies for your suggestions.
I am going to get one this weekend and I think I am going to get Graco, Sony and your Fisher Price. I was thinking about the video one, but I think would drive myself nuts.
Thanks Ladies!!!!

Re: Ladies, I am asking for advice again
I LOVE the summer night vision video monitor. It was a life saver and eliminated having to figure out what his sounds meant.
