 Finally I can get some sleep! Awesome productFeb 27, 2008
By languageladki
I am a first time mom and my son is 6 1/2 months old. We used to swaddle him and he slept wonderfully (almost 11 hours a night) no problem. Then he started rolling over and we couldn't swaddle him anymore. Problems started there. He is one of those babies that prefers to sleep on his stomach and just would not lie on his back. What's worse is that he would bury his nose right into the mattress so that you couldn't even see it and would resist me if I tried to help him turn his face to the side. At first I tried to turn him over every time he went onto his stomach, to no avail. He fought me even harder. I was so worried that he wouldn't be able to breathe and would suffocate himself with his nose in the mattress. I didn't want to buy another monitor because we already had one that we paid $100+ for that works great. However, after weeks and weeks of getting 2-3 hours of sleep a night I had to give in.
BOY AM I GLAD THAT I DID! THIS PRODUCT WAS A LIFESAVER FOR ME.
Let me say that if you are struggling with the same fears you should get this monitor and save your sanity. I am finally sleeping soundly and my son sleeps so much better because I'm not hanging over the edge of the crib watching his every move, disturbing his sleep. We both sleep soundly now.
This monitor isn't cheap, but I think it is well worth the money. I also like the feature of the temperature monitor because we live in a cold place and in our bedroom it can get down to below 60 degrees at night even though our thermostat is set on 73 (our apartment's heating system doesn't work well at all). This helps me be sure that our space heater is keeping it within a temperature range that is appropriate for the baby.
I was surprised when I took the unit out of the box that the sensor pad is so small (about 12 x 12" more or less); I didn't think that it would work, but so far we've had no problems and we've had it for about a week. Also, don't waste your money buying the "board" that they sell to put under the monitor. From what I understand it is a waste of money and you can get something just as good at your local hardware store for much less. I already had a board very similar that is working just fine for us.
I am well pleased with the product....but definitely make sure that you turn off the sensor before removing the baby from the crib or the alarm will go off and it is loud. Great product....thank you, thank you, thank you for inventing this.

I thank God for this productJan 03, 2009
By J. Roane
As first time parents, we got this product mainly for peace of mind. My husband thought that it was gimmicky, but was all for it so I would feel better. However, as time went on, we both became more and more impressed with how the monitor worked. Our daughter is 10 weeks old and she has not laid down for so much as a nap without the monitor being turned on.
I never thought that this monitor would be used for anything other than peace of mind. However, in the middle of the night a few nights ago, the alarm went off. My husband and I jumped up and ran to her room. Our daughter wasn't breathing. My husband shook her and yelled for her to wake up. We performed CPR and she finally started to stir.
I truly believe that this product saved my daughter's life. The ER doctor told us buying this monitor was the best money we've ever spent. I have to agree.
As for a review of the monitor: We have never had any false alarms. We've never had a problem with static or interference. There are only two things that I have found to be less than perfect: 1. The temperature on the display seems to always be a few degrees off. 2. The low battery beep is the same as the 15 second warning beep, which caused us to run to the crib once in the middle of the night in a panic. No biggie- I just keep the monitor in the base at night now.
I thank God that we bought this monitor for our precious baby girl.

Worth it for peace of mindMay 22, 2008

We had a premature baby that spent some time in the NICU. They didn't feel a monitor was necessary for her, but we were nervous so researched and found this product. We love it! You do need to read the manual and decide if you need to adjust sensitivity. It did not go off when we took the baby out of the crib when we had a fan running, so other vibrations can fool it. Other than that it consistently goes off when we forget and take the baby out of the crib without turning it off. We also haven't had any false alarms, just once when she was breathing very shallow (I was awake and in the room with her) and it might have been legitimate. The beep woke her up enough that she started breathing normally again. It is not a piercingly loud noise, btw, and after spending time in the NICU with lots of babies on monitors, it doesn't even wake our baby up when it goes off. (we frequently forget when we take her out of the crib... ;)
I've recommended this to my pregnant friends. It is a bit pricey, but if you have a preemie or are the type to worry, it is definitely worth the money.

good baby monitor for preemiesApr 05, 2008
By A. Beers
we bought this a few days after we brought our son home from the hospital he had been born at 31 weeks and after spending 5 weeks with him on monitors in the NICU I couldn't sleep with out checking on him every half hour. This monitor has allowed me to sleep again.
The movement detector feature works very well, we used a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to place under it and it functions fine so I would say its not necessary to get the manufacturer recomended piece of wood to place the mat on. Our son sleeps in a pack and play with the bassinet insert and the monitor has no trouble picking up his movements. It is very comforting to me to see the little detector bar going back and forth on my monitor at night. It picks up every breath. I have had two false alarms where it did not detect movement, both times I had left the vibration feature going on his mattress.
We have been using this for a month now and I feel like it was worth the money. The audio part of the monitor is great too. It has a microphone feature so it only transmits when the baby makes noise and you can adjust the sensitivity to hear your babies every sniff, or only when they are crying to be fed. This way you don't have to listen to the constant hum of a conventional baby monitor.
It has some other features like an alarm when the r

 Much better. . .Jan 06, 2008
By J. Wyatt
I returned my original Angelcare monitor because it was very staticy. The deluxe is much better, but even with the "tick" feature off every time the motion sensor is triggered the parent's unit make a clicking noise. It's far less annoying than the original and with the voice activation feature you won't hear the ticking all night. . . of course the voice activation feature sometimes doesn't pick up the kid until he's at a full scream.
Overall I'd say if you're considering the Angelcare monitor for the motion pad feature don't waste your money on the original, get the deluxe.
