Is it absolutely necessary to have a baby monitor and carrier/sling to begin with? 🧐
@vixster, aw sorry to hear that :( I can understand why you would get one then ❤️ xx
@vixster, omg really 😱😱 that’s amazing then thank goodness you had it wow xxx
@carlybeanw, yeah I think your right and no way leaving baby so is pretty pointless haha!! xx
Unless your planning on leaving baby alone in a different room then no to the monitor. Never brought a sling with my youngest, and only used it once with my elder two so id say they were pointless.
@em93bbourn, I just had them in the pram or car seat while out, helps if the car seat fits onto your pram frame too lol x
@em93bbourn its not a must have but others might say different xx
@melanie-spiritmedium, oh really haha! It’s really not needed then ha! xx
@trina1989, ahh I’m not going to bother then ha! xx
I’ve never had either and I’m on baby number 3 lol x
You won't need a monitor right away as baby will always be with you. I never put mine asleep and left them as newborns. May have gone into kitchen to wash up etc but never left them upstairs while I was downstairs. A sling is not essential just preference. I never used one first time. Used one a little with Max.
@ell.joe, yeah I thought baby going to be near me always anyway :) lol that will be like me if I do buy a carrier it will get thrown in a cupboard never to be seen again lol xxx
@courtniek98x, ahh cool I’m thinking I’ll use my pram anyway so that’s good then :) xx
@beffgoude, ahh yeah that makes sense with another lil baba! 😊 oh okay looks like the monitor is coming off the list for now then xx
Nope 😊 I never had a sling because she had her pram and I’ve never used my baby monitor xx
@nataliielouiseexo, ahh yeah they are so expensive for a decent monitor it’s ridiculous lol I’ll save money and be the monitor myself 😂.. & yeah I can imagine 😂😂 haha!! xx
I personally use my carrier more than my pram, but I have another child so find when I've got the baby in the pram it's harder to get involved with him. Haven't got a baby monitor never have had one either 🙆
@em93bbourn I got my monitor in the sale at Mothercare only reason I had it but didn't use it straight away lol 😁 I would get opinions on a carrier or sling I mostly have him out in the pram I felt pregnant again when I had him in one lol 😂 xx
@nataliielouiseexo, ah I can wait a bit to get a monitor then that’s what I thought I’m not gonna be leaving my babies side at first lol & I’m not sure I’m a carrier person 😂 I’ll leave it then for now see how I get on ha !! Thank you hun xx
I started using my monitor after 2 months I think cause I was mostly letting him sleep on me or going to bed when he was, I've used my carrier once lol xx
You won’t leave baby on their own in a room to sleep at first. And a sling is totally your choice x
