In What Situations Is It Still Useful to Keep a Baby Monitor?

In some cases, it’s perfectly reasonable to keep using a monitor longer:

Health or Special Needs: If your child has a medical condition or requires extra monitoring, the device remains a vital tool.
Unfamiliar Environments: For trips or vacations, a monitor can provide added peace of mind in new surroundings.
Sibling Monitoring: Monitors can also be repurposed to keep an eye on younger siblings or shared play areas.
