We stopped around 2. Ours broke which gave us a great reason to stop.

We still use it at 2.5 but our room is not close to his. We'll continue for a while I imagine.

We still use it at almost 2.5 even though we live in a pretty small house and can hear him well. But my son is a restless sleeper so we like the video feature to see when he is just stirring vs being up for real.

Still use our video monitor with our 3 year old. Not sure when we'll stop!

We didn't really start using it until we made the transition from crib to bed. I like to check when LO actually falls asleep for nap and when she wakes up. She thinks her OK to wake clock will tell her to get up from nap like morning (we don't set it) so she'll sit there for an hour staring at it. I'm not sure when we'll stop.

Her room is on the other side of the house so I still like it in case she wakes up MOTN. Even though she can just walk in our room. Plus I like to see how long it takes her to fall asleep.

No clue when we will stop. Mostly at this point we use it to know when she is up in the morning. We can't hear her from our room at all so its also a security blanket for us.

Someone asked me when we'll stop using ours and I had no clue how to answer so I said "when she's 21." Sounds like I'm not alone in desiring to continue using it for a while.

Ours broke when he was about 14 months. So we have been monitor free ever since.

I like the video monitor aspect, I can see us using it for a long time!

We still use it for my 3 year old and I don't see us stopping any time soon! (also for my 10 month old)

I plan to use some sort of monitor for a long time. Our video monitor is pretty unreliable so we have an audio monitor too and I think at this point if the video monitor broke I'd be ok with just the audio one (she is 17 mo). But I'd like to keep that a one until se is old enough both to open her bedroom door and safely walk down stairs in the dark (because our bedroom is on a different floor) and also trustworthy enough to do that. I don't know what age that is.

DD will be six in March and we still use it. Her bedroom is on the second floor and our bedroom is on the first, so we would have no clue what's going on up there.

Ours broke when LO was 12 months so we quit then. We got a new one when we moved and she has an upstairs bedroom so we can't hear her like we used to.
