Does anyone else just, you know, watch the baby or stay near enough to hear them when they go off? We didn’t have any clever stuff for our kids and it was tiring but ok (both full time jobs, no family to help us)

Cosleeping is what we did for our twins until they were about 1y old. They've turned out fine. I mean, what did pre-tech societies do?

Yep, I think sometimes working in tech can bite back along the “medium is the message” lines. In engineering sure tech is the answer. With kids it’s not always so.
