Dr. Carole Keim discusses baby apps and electronics in this episode, exploring what is helpful and what isn't necessary. Dr. Keim says that not much is really needed in terms of electronics for babies. The things she recommends include baby trackers, baby monitors, white noise machines, Kindle for mom, and aromatherapy diffusers to aid with sleep. She details what each app or electronic item does and highlights specific brands and best use practices.Baby tracker apps are helpful because they track how many times babies are eating, peeing, and pooping to ensure they're doing enough. Useful apps for moms include a Kindle or audiobook, so reading can be done while feeding. Dr. Keim breaks down all the types of baby monitors and sorts through the best to use in terms of convenience, expense, and video versus audio. She also explores electronic bulb suckers and why they can be more helpful than manual versions and the benefits of essentail oil diffusers. There are not a lot of electronics needed, which makes this episode so useful in sorting through the myriad of ads and options available.In this episode:AppsBaby tracker - feeding, peeing, poopingWonder weeksSolid starts app for baby led weaning Kindle app for mom Audiobooks or podcasts for mom Don't need: owlet ElectronicsBaby monitor with 2 parent units for sound / video baby monitorWhite noise machine - Hatch sound machine + rest go, or any portable white noise machineElectric bulb suckerMobile for over the changing tableDiffuser for essential oils (listen to season 3 for specifics on oils)Don't need: special music for baby, humidifier, video monitor (though it can be nice to have in addition to a regular monitor), snoo bassinet As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.Dr. Keim has extensively researched the information presented in this episode.

A baby monitor could have disrupted 111 calls on One NZ's cell network

Dina and Tim know that the footage is going to be bad. They had already seen glimpses… but they weren't prepared. The baby camera footage shows a 56 year old woman standing at the edge of the bed. She's emotionless yet she's holding a newborn baby in her arms... She takes a moment before calmly - using all her force - to chuck the baby across the room onto the bed. Ever so calmly she walks over and stuffs blankets into the baby's mouth and slams her down. This is the case of the worst nanny in San Francisco. And strangely, how a TikTok executive and Snapchat executive get involved in this viral case. 

Baby monitors are supposed to bring peace of mind, but sometimes they capture things you wish you'd never seen or heard. In this video, we share two chilling true stories that will make you think twice about the cameras and technology you may place inside your home... First, a young mother is startled when she hears her baby crying but notices something strange on the monitor—her son is still asleep. What she discovers will haunt her forever. In the second story, a group of mischievous kids hack into baby monitors for fun, thinking it's harmless. But their prank takes a terrifying turn when they encounter the wrong person on the other end. Turn the lights low, and prepare yourself for these bone-chilling tales that prove even technology isn't safe from the unknown.

Kevin Lavelle's got a knack for big ideas and starting fresh. First, he took on menswear with Mizzen+Main, bringing performance fabric to dress shirts and making them a hit with pro athletes and office rebels alike. Now he's back with something new—a baby monitor. Yep, from dress shirts to baby tech. In this episode, he breaks down the whole journey: the wild beginnings, early mistakes, and how he built a brand from scratch, twice. It's a sharp take on the wins, the losses, and why some ideas just stick around until you finally make them happen.Episode Highlights:How Kevin's “aha” moment led to Mizzen+Main's success.The surprising lessons from scaling a DTC menswear brand.Transitioning from clothing to tech: Why Kevin started Harbor.Kevin's experience with early product mistakes and customer trust.The power of influencer partnerships and wholesale growth.How a Tim Ferriss podcast ad skyrocketed Mizzen+Main's sales.What it takes to launch a product parents trust with their kids.Mentioned in This EpisodeBrands & BusinessesMizzen+MainHarborShopifySage 50 PeachtreeEpicor ERPHawk SearchFairePeople MentionedTim FerrissJJ WattPhil MickelsonDamon JohnSimon SinekSponsorsZipifyCleverificOmnisendHelp the ShowAsk a question in The Unofficial Shopify Podcast Facebook GroupSupport the show by leaving a review and subscribingWhat's Kurt Up To?See our recent work at EthercycleSubscribe to our YouTube ChannelApply to work with Kurt to grow your storeNever Miss an EpisodeSubscribe wherever you get your podcastsJoin Kurt's newsletter

One of my favorite things to search on youtube are ring doorbell footage videos. Like creepy footage of ring doorbell cameras or like creepy things caught on baby monitors. Now most of these videos always end up being harmless, just a bit scary. But in 2007 when a man named Edward in the Czech republic was setting up his baby monitor for his newborn son, he would find something horrific. When flipping through the signal channels trying to connect his baby monitor screen to the camera he accidentally connected to another baby monitor nearby. Only this footage showed a little boy sitting in the middle of a dark basement with his hands bound and kicking around a roll of tape.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Many parents of infants place a monitor near the baby's crib and a speaker in another room so they will hear if the baby wakes up. The question was posed to Hacham Ovadia Yosef as to whether parents may set up the monitor before Shabbat, such that on Shabbat they will hear the baby's cries in the speaker in their room when the baby wakes up. Hacham Ovadia penned a lengthy essay on the topic, in his work Halichot Olam, addressing the more general issue of the status of microphones on Shabbat. He explains that it is clearly forbidden to use a microphone on Shabbat, however, the prohibition involved is only "Mi'de'rabbanan" – a violation of a Rabbinic enactment. When a person speaks into a microphone, he certainly does not do anything that could be considered "kindling" or "extinguishing" in any halachic sense. At most, he increases the flow of electricity, which would be forbidden only "Mi'de'rabbanan." Addressing the specific case of a baby monitor, Hacham Ovadia notes that the fact that the baby's voice activates the monitor's system is certainly of no concern, because the infant obviously does not intend to activate anything. And as for the fact that the speaker loudly sounds the baby's voice in the house, Hacham Ovadia notes that this poses no problem according to Sephardic practice. The Shulhan Aruch allows setting up the millstones before Shabbat even though they will make noise on Shabbat, because in his view, there is no prohibition against having noise in the home on Shabbat. One could argue, however, that using the monitor should be forbidden because the parents might talk to the baby or to each other in the baby's room, and they would then be activating the monitor's system through their speech. Hacham Ovadia dismisses this argument, however, noting that this situation falls under the category of "Pesik Resheh De'lo Ichpat Leh" – an action which inadvertently results in a Melacha which one has no interest in whatsoever. Although the parents' speech would inevitably increase the flow of electricity in the monitor, this is neither their intention nor their desire – and therefore, since the prohibition at stake is "Mi'de'rabbanan," and not a Torah violation, speaking is allowed. As such, Hacham Ovadia permits the use of a baby monitor that was set up before Shabbat, and even permits the parents to speak in the baby's room over Shabbat. He notes, however, that some monitors are sold with an apparatus that covers the monitor so one can speak when it is on without their voice being detected, and it would be preferable to use monitors with such a system. But even without this apparatus, the use of a monitor on Shabbat is permissible. Incidentally, Hacham Ovadia in this context also discusses the status of a hearing-aid on Shabbat, and concludes that one may wear a hearing-aid on Shabbat, despite the fact that a hearing-aid essentially works as a microphone, amplifying sound. Hacham Ovadia writes that he consulted on this matter with technology experts, as well as with Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Jerusalem, 1910-1995), who was widely considered among the leading experts in the field of electricity in Halacha. He concluded that since speaking to the hearing aid at most increases the electric current, it does not entail any Torah violation, and thus may be permitted, as discussed above in regard to a baby monitor. Summary: It is permissible to set up a baby monitor before Shabbat to hear the baby in a different room, and it is even permissible to speak on Shabbat in the room where the monitor is placed.
