Hi mums and fellow mums-to be!
I'm expecting my first DC in Dec, so am new to the world of baby-paraphenalia! I'm looking for some advice about baby monitors and hope you can advise me.
I'm looking for something quite straightforward and basic - don't really think I need the fancy pressure pads or video screens etc (although willing to be pursuaded!). Several of my close friends have recommended the BT150 and said it is excellent, very reliable and gets the job done without too much fuss. However, it appears to have been discontinued and a newer model BT250 is now available in it's place. I have read a few online reviews about the BT250 and to be honest it just doesn't sound as good (poor battery life, shorter range etc). Boo!
My question is should I...
- get a second hand BT150 from eBay (i.e. how long do these things last for?!)?
- take a punt on the BT250?
- get something totally different instead?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
