    I wasn't being nasty. I was doing what the post asked. You rarely use the correct grammar so why don't you go sort out your own posts before picking apart others

    I think you'll find that the OP asked where she could get such a monitor, not for random people to judge her, which you did. So before you go off on another rant I suggest you read the OP and see exactly what was posted.

    I wasn't replying to the OP in the post you quoted so I would suggest that before you have another little rant, you actually read the post you were talking about.

    I still can't understand how, in my circumstances, it is riskier leaving kids in the car than taking them inside. Not one of you knows the lay out of my house or my driveway confirgurations so how can you judge.
    Had I ever managed to get them indoors still asleep I would have to either put them in their beds upstairs (and out of view) or on the floor in the front room for fear of them falling off the sofa.
    And for the poster who said something like 'Are they such an inconvenience when they are awake' or some such, no, but five minutes to have a cuppa or even a poo in peace can seem like a luxury.
    I put my twins to bed when they were babies upstairs until I went up sometime later. Cant see how I could've done anything differently. Didnt fancy going to bed at 7pm even though at times I was totally knackered.
    Go on. Judge away.........It's become a !!!! slinging match anyway.

    It's probably concern, though if something did happen to you and you'll keeled over in the house you might prefer them to be left in the car where someone might spot them, though with the heat/cold it's a bad thing to do leaving a child alone in a car

    advice from health visitor

    Baby car seats are designed to be easily detached from the car. So, if you want to move your sleeping baby between the car and your home in his seat, it's fine to do so. Check he is safely strapped in before lifting him from one place to another.

    It can be convenient to leave your sleeping baby in his car seat, when he is not in the car, for hours at a time. However car seats aren't designed to be used in this way. Once you are indoors put him into his moses basket or cot.

    If you do have to go on a long journey, break it up so that your baby can be taken out of his seat for a while. Some fresh air will do him good and you can give him a drink when he's still awake.

    Check that your baby isn't too hot in his car seat, and take a layer of clothing off if needed. Never leave your baby sleeping in his car seat in the car.
