But I need help! The monitor majorly disrupts my sleep. DS is almost 8 months and sleeps in his own room (right next to our room). But we keep his door closed and he has white noise going, he sleeps better that way. So I feel like I need the monitor. But I am so sensitive to it that I feel like every time he shifts position, sighs, makes a little noise, I wake up. I'm up all. night. long. DH said he'd move it over to his side of the bed... but I would still hear it and wake up, that wouldn't fix the problem. I don't know what to do. I am not comfortable ditching the monitor, I need to be able to see/hear him! But I need sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531928 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 08:36:59 +0000 twodoghouse 2531928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not the sound-only one at night because we can hear them through the walls if they wake up. We do have a video monitor that I can check on my phone if they wake up. I do keep the sound monitor on during naps because I'm usually downstairs and wouldn't be able to hear them as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531920 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 08:28:01 +0000 yin 2531920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's on all night in LO2's room. His room is further away, and it's more difficult to hear him if he is crying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531913 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 08:21:43 +0000 Happygal 2531913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: same here! It's more for morning time--she'll talk and roll around for awhile, but I wait to get her until I see she's sitting or standing up. I actually throw a sock over the monitor so the lights aren't shining in our room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531910 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 08:19:48 +0000 Rescuemom10 2531910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 3 and a stubborn little one about bed. I have the angel care monitor so I still use it because it will alert me if she gets out of bed. She doesn't even try to because she knows it will beep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531906 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 08:15:06 +0000 Corduroy 2531906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only the first night LO spent in her own room at 4 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531876 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 07:58:41 +0000 FaithFertility 2531876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's on but I have volume off<br /> I keep it on so I can check if she cries to see if she is laying down or standing (standing) = Intervention :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531872 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 07:56:11 +0000 LBee 2531872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, the monitor fell behind the bed about a month ago and I've been too lazy to fish it out. Thus we have stopped using it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531866 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 07:54:29 +0000 snowjewelz 2531866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since we co-sleep I have it on till we go to bed too. I need to in case she decides to climb off our really high bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531840 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 07:38:36 +0000 Charm54 2531840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, dd1's room is on a different level so we need it. I usually turn the video off and just leave it to scan the audio between the two rooms even though the nursery is next door and I can hear dd2 with no monitor. Neither sleep with white noise so it doesn't bother me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531837 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 07:31:58 +0000 Ajsmommy 2531837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I keep it on all night. But we don't have a video monitor and we sleep with closed doors and DD's room is not right next door </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531737 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 03:28:52 +0000 Pumuckl 2531737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No they both sleep within 10ft of us so we hear when they are up in their rooms or crying for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531650 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 21:23:06 +0000 sapphire 2531650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our monitor not activates she. There is noise above a sensitivity threshold. We keep it on every night. No video. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531461 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 18:37:12 +0000 sorrycharlie 2531461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. Little one is up often and older has nightmares. I turn the screen off but it alternates between them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531458 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 18:35:48 +0000 MrsStar 2531458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I mainly use it as a night light. I also wake up randomly during the night to check them so I just glance at the monitor's and then go back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531449 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 18:31:14 +0000 jape14 2531449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @erinbaderin: on, but no volume. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531445 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 18:30:01 +0000 erinbaderin 2531445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have it on but with no volume. We hear him through the wall if he cries and then we can look and see if he's standing up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531428 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 18:19:27 +0000 peachykeen 2531428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Technically it is on 24/7 but in "sleep" mode - screen and sound only turn on if she makes significant noise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531381 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 17:40:54 +0000 Alba4 2531381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't used the monitor since it broke over a year ago (DS is 2.5), so nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531380 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 17:39:05 +0000 MamaG 2531380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes :meh: they are 4.5 and 17 months. They both have white noise and closed doors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-the-monitor-on-all-night#post-2531375 Thu, 21 Apr 2016 17:34:01 +0000 Bao 2531375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our youngest is 2 and oldest is 3 and we only use the monitor to talk to them or check in on them, but it doesn't run all night anymore since they are older. I will keep it on all night if one of them is sick though. Our rooms are next to and across from each other though. </p>
