When did you stop using a baby monitor?

Mine is 22 months and I just put it away. The last few months Ive mainly been using it while I'm in the shower but were totally done now.

My daughters room is right beside ours, we share a wall, leave the door open and still used a monitor lol. I'm not even a heavy sleeper, but when your exhausted there's a big difference between a small cry from the bedroom and a loud wail from the monitor beside your head! Plus, the monitor would pick up the noise of her rustling around, so it would tick us off for her waking up soon or being in a lot of discomfort.

She is at the point now, that if she wakes up at night, she hops out of her bed, walks over to my side and wakes me up. We put a gate t the hallway just in case but she's never fiddled with it at night.

We never needed one. I live in a 3 bedroom ranch house and the bedrooms are right next to each other and we always slept with the doors open and I sleep light. Since your bedrooms are spaced apart I think having a baby monitor until he is 3 might be a good idea (a lot of toddlers sleep walk) unless you can move him closer to your room.

the answer is when you can hear her crying when she gets up lol... but my little one got out of her crib b4 we took it away. shes about 2 and she is now in a toddler bed and does good. she come out of her room and comes downsairs when she wakes up. we shut and lock the other doors int he upstairs

does this help?

We never used one. Our daughter's room is right next to our's. If she needs us, we can sure hear it.
