I had 3 babies and spent $0 on video monitoring. Your baby will be fine. Don't fall for the advertising drama. Babies have been fine for thousands of years with no electronics.
They've also not been fine.
SUID Death rate for infants has decreased even since 1990. Baby monitor likely had a role in that.
FYI not supporting subscription for features a device has in hardware, just saying I'd rather have a monitor that never went off than no monitor and a dead child. There are plenty of alternative devices without subs that cost a lot less to begin with.
And only a few children were kidnapped by the Fae.
I used a wireless webcam to monitor my baby and, honestly, I was so paranoid that I don't regret it. Seeing her breathe or move before I went to bed and when I woke up was a comfort and relief.
I can just hear some people going, "WHAT? Are you crazy?". I was a little tike in the early 60s and the only monitor my mom had was me screaming or the "THUNK" of me falling and hitting the floor.
What about the ones that were left in the cold for being sickly?
They turn into Swedes.
