I Want to Moniter Two Kids at the Same Time....

I just used two of the same monitors and set them on the same channel and used one receiver. It works OK, but if I have both monitors on with the one receiver, one kid comes through loud and clear and the other comes through statticky and muffled. And, I have two receivers...one is always staticky if I have both monitors on. You can still hear both of the kiddos, its just very staticky. I was very worried about this at first, but now its fine. Trust me, kids are loud enough for us to hear, even without the monitor!! Especially if something is wrong!! But, I know it gives peace of mind to have a monitor! I have never used one of the more expensive ones that are made to monitor two seperate rooms...so I can't give an opinion on those.

Good luck and Congrats on the new baby!!

I just purchased another brand to monitor my second child. We tested them out checking which one worked best on what channel. This worked fine for us until we no longer needed the second monitor.

Good luck and congrats!

I just bought the 3 room monitor by Safety 1st. I have an almost 4 yr old, an almost 2 yr old and a 5 mo. old. Babies R Us had it for $89.99. We tried doing the multiple monitor thing, but it didn't work for us. This one worked so much better. Babies R Us is great about returns so you could always try 2 seperate ones.

We use 2 different brands of video monitors and have had no problems. I'm not sure what the brands are, but you could try one out and exchange it if you have interference.

Hi E.,

I bought this one. And, it is more expensive, but it has been well worth the money.
