My problem with baby monitors
When I first moved my little munchkin from his next-to-me to his cot in his own room first thing I bought was a camera'd baby monitor. Fast forward 7 months little one is now 14 months old. And I've had months of uninterrupted sleep (mostly) untill recently... No idea why he has started getting up whining during the night... He isn't hungry... He has been off night feeds since he was around 7 months...but I don't go through to him unless I really need to... But I've picked up a habit where I watch him wriggle and turn continuously for hours on the baby monitor and I listen to the whines.... Come morning time I'm like why on earth am I so tired?... Yes because I watch the baby monitor... I switched the sound off at 3am this morning as the sound of a mating cat coming from my 1 year old was grinding my bones... Then next thing I know at 7am I can hear ma ma ma coming from his room he looks refreshed even after whining and wriggling around most of the night... Hmmm. I think this mama may be ready to ditch that pigging monitor. 🤔
