Strange baby crying...

Ashleigh has been in bed for about 15 mins but I am upstairs on the computer (her room is downstairs) and I can hear a kid crying. So just went down to check her and she is just playing with her doll but not crying. So come back upstairs and can still hear the crying - go into our room and the crying is coming through the monitor. So I listen... and its definately not Ashleigh's cry (sounds like a young baby, plus coughing) and then I remember that her monitor isn't even plugged in cos I unplugged it this morning to use the plug for the dehumidifer in her room!! I hate freaky stuff like that    I know its obviously picking up a signal from someone elses monitor but I'm sure there aren't any little kids that live around here - the youngest seems to be about 3. I'm gonna switch it off now - its bad enough having to listen to your own child scream - without being subjected to someone elses lol!

I was spooked out by that a while back - it came through in the middle of the night, but our boy was sound asleep. Not pleasant when you're in a sleepy haze

Changed the frequency on the monitor and the ghost baby disappeared, much to my relief!

Hehehe that would be freaky! Hope the signal has stopped now.

We had that problem and it turned out it was our neighbours monitor she has the same kind and they were interferring with eachother so I switched channels and it never happened again!

When we had our 1st Plunket visit she asked us if we had a monitor as the other mums in my street were experiencing interference between them.
Sure would freak me out

Happened to me once when I was preg with the gremlins too, and I could hear the parents talking as well, I felt so sorry for them coz the baby was screaming hard out.

Creeepy. Even though I'm sure there's a rational explanation. Reminds me of that trashy ghostie program on TV2 a while back where the parents were both in bed and heard the father singing a lullaby through the monitor - something he'd done that afternoon.

One of my coffee group girls heard her neighbour discussing finances with her partner. She switched the channel straight away but still felt a bit stink.

PMSL!!! ...

Our neighbour has a police radio (god knows why???!!) and i was talking to him 1 day when he jokingly repeated something i had said to DH the night before!! turns out he was piking up Astins angel care monitor!! so from then on we were very aware of turning it off for taking or "talking"
