Summary: My husband and I just had our second child. With our first child we lived in a small one floor one bedroom apartment. After a few years with one child we knew we wanted to expand our family. With that we bought a new bigger home and started trying. Before I had this child I told my family I was much more concerned with being able to keep an eye on my sleeping baby.
This time there wasn’t a necessity of sleeping in the same room, and
having already gone through that my husband put his foot down and
insisted our new infant would sleep in its own room. With this in mind
we kept a look out for a variety of baby monitors available.
When looking at the variety available we had a checklist of features on hand: high quality, good prices, portable, good transmission, wireless and as an extra bonus – enough range to bring it outside. Not that we would go outside a lot with the baby sleeping, but I had learned with baby number one that every now and then you want to go out and grab something and not have to wake the baby up to do it.
Now with our house, I might want to head out in the sun while the baby is napping for a bit and have the extra security provided by a monitor. We looked through a number of different options available, did a compare of prices and reviews and when we came across the mobicam we knew it fit the bill exactly. Even giving us extras we didn’t initially need, like a camera with night vision.
I was going to purchase it myself, but at my baby shower my sister-in-law had actually bought us one for a gift. We didn’t wait for the baby to come; we tried it out that night! It was a lot of fun setting it up and seeing how huge the range was. We even connected it to the television and I watched my husband jumping up and down in the new nursery through the child unit.
Now we like to use the feature to switch the video to our newborn son while commercials play on our shows. I find this immensely helpful as a parent in getting their “baby fix” without worrying about trampling into the room and waking up your little one.
When I hear of any of my friends who are going to be having babies, I recommend this monitoring system. For those close to our family I like to go online and order them as gifts. It is the perfect solution for anyone who is like me and can’t go two feet away from their baby without checking on them.
