How Can You Tell When It’s Time to Stop Using a Baby Monitor?

There’s no universal answer to when you should stop using a baby monitor, but here are some signs it might be time:

  • Your Child Sleeps Through the Night: If your child no longer wakes up frequently, the monitor might be unnecessary.
  • They Can Call Out for You: When your little one can shout “Mommy!” or “Daddy!” from their room, you might not need to rely on a monitor anymore.
  • Room Proximity: If your child’s room is close enough for you to hear without a monitor, natural sounds might suffice.
  • You Feel Overly Dependent: If checking the monitor has become a source of anxiety, it might be time to ease up.
