Swann Digital Video Monitor

I wasn't convinced that having a video monitor was necessary but with "DSTV" (as we came to call it) we were converted. Being able to keep an eye on him as he naps is actually very helpful, especially in those early "precious first born" months when you spend a LOT of time checking the sleeping baby! It has infrared so it works in the dark as well as a colour picture during daytime naps.
This monitor is simple to use, very portable (we took on holiday) and has all the features of a normal monitor (parent can talk to baby, lullabies etc) with the bonus of a wireless camera which isn't affected by other wireless devices in your home.
