I was SO NERVOUS when I had my first child...so much that I KNEW I wouldn't be sleeping for months because I'd be the crazy mom hovering over her child with a mirror to make sure she was breathing. I had some friends recommend this monitor and seriously...it's the ONLY reason I got any sleep. I was so comfortable knowing that if anything happened her monitor would sound, alerting us to come and come quick. I also used this monitor (same one) for my second child and have never had any technical or mechanical issues at all.
This monitor is actually my staple gift to give when a new friend becomes pregnant for the first time. It is a SAVOR and such a relief to know you can sleep while the monitor takes over. Also, the pad is so thin that it doesn't disrupt the mattress in the least and we have also taken this on all r vacations and just used it as a regular monitor when the baby is in the pack and play since there is the option to turn the 'motion' part off.
