Nighttime light recommendations!

Hi all!

sorry, not specifically a Q about baby monitors but is related!

I’m a FTM to be and after recommendations for lights to use in the bedroom during nighttime feeds. I’m wary of using my usual bedside lamp because it seems so bright, can anyone recommend a lamp/light/device that is light enough to see what I’m doing but will keep the room dim?

I’ve seen some like momcozy lamps that have the red light, which I like but do they actually give out enough light to see to change/feed baby?

TIA!

We had a GrowEgg light which was so good as it had 3 different dimness settings, so we had it on the lowest all night long. It also gives you the room temp and changes colour based on room temp which helped us with baby wear / sleeping bags

Thank you! I already liked the look of that one!

I actually got this after the baby stage but I use it for holidays with our little kids and also in my bedroom as I pee a few times in the night! You can carry it around too and the charge on it lasts months…
