New parents typically experience a combination of extreme emotions, mainly extreme joy and borderline terror. The first thing most parents ask themselves when they bring their new baby home is, “OK, what do I do now?”
What parents fear the most of course is making a mistake. It’s normal to feel fear about caring for a fragile new life. It’s common for parents to feel like they want to be near their new baby at all times. Of course, that’s not practical, and it probably wouldn’t be healthy for parents even if it could be done. So what’s the alternative to staying glued to baby’s side?
Technology has resulted in the ideal solution: the wireless baby monitor. A baby monitor allows you to listen in on your baby from any where in your home, and video monitors even allow you to watch what your baby is doing. With wireless baby monitors, you can keep a careful eye on your new baby at all times, plus go ahead with your regular life.
Baby monitors consist of a radio transmitter and a receiver. Some systems also include a wireless video camera and viewing screen. Even the most “complex” baby monitors on the market are incredibly easy to set up and use today.
Wireless baby monitors require no installation: they’re ready to go. Place the wireless transmitter in your baby’s room and keep the receiver within hearing distance. Today’s baby monitors are so sensitive, you can pick up everything that is going on inside your baby’s room! You’ll hear and can respond to not only baby’s cries, but also movements from an awake, but quiet baby.
Parents rely on wireless baby monitors during the day when they’re performing household chores or simply hanging out in another room. But perhaps the best application of all is using a baby monitor at night. A baby monitor will allow you to relax and get a good night’s sleep without having to struggle to try to hear every sound from your baby’s room. Simply turn up the volume on your reciever, and when baby needs you, you’ll know it!
There are a lot of baby monitor varieties to choose from today. Some types allow you to hear your baby as well as allowing your baby to hear you. Baby monitors featuring video cameras provide an additional level of “surveillance.” Whatever type of wireless baby monitor you choose, you can look forward to peace of mind about the comfort and safety of your baby. They are truly a blessing for new parents, and of course a great comfort to babies!
