to ask for baby monitor recommendations for an anxious mum?

[aimingforpb]

About 6 weeks ago my then 3 month old DS had some blue floppy episodes that resulted in an ambulance being called. It was awful and now he's nearly 6 months I'm hoping to be able to put him in down to sleep on his own soon. I want to be prepared for that and feel I would be more comfortable with a monitor.

I don't want the angel care one that goes off when breathing stops. I already have one and it just false alarms a lot. It was awful for my anxiety and I prefer to just sleep with him safely in bed with me.

Can anyone recommend a monitor that they felt safe with?

Your colleague obviously doesn't know much about attachment issues, anyway - you're more likely to cause attachment issues by forcing a baby to separate too soon, (obviously on a much larger/more neglectful scale than simply moving them to their own room :o ) than by keeping him with you to sleep.
