In response to "Question for the ST parents - we got one of those baby monitors that has a pad you put under the mattress that picks up on the baby's movements. No " by kelly

I have heard of them, but have not used one. You might be better off just sticking with a monitor that lights up with noise levels.

Having some full sensory system is nice, I'm sure, but my fear is that it would feed paranoia and not allow you to come to accept that babies are gonna be OK.

We don't have to use it - I didn't even realize it came with that pad until reading customer reviews very recently. - kelly Dec 20, 15:11 4
- I think it would be good for the first month or so, when parents are really tense about that sort of stuff, but after that you should wean off it :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 20, 15:12 3
  - Do babies move all the time when little? -- nm - the liioulu with Dec 20, 15:13 2
    - I was wondering about the sensitivity. Seems like it would have to monitor breathing?? -- nm - MojaveMeg Dec 20, 15:15 1
      - That seems better. It would have to be sensitive for that. -- nm - the liioulu with Dec 20, 15:19
