Answer
I found this site: http://www.babycenter.com/baby-cost-calculator .... it works.

or this site is helpful too: http://www.investopedia.com/articles/pf/08/budgeting-for-baby.asp

It says:

To get out and about you will most likely want to purchase a stroller, an infant car seat (required by law), a diaper bag, portable play pen and baby carrier. Total: $400 or more

To keep your little prince or princess occupied you may want to consider a portable swing, "bouncy seat," play mat and/or jump seat. Total: $200 or more

To begin, you will want to have a crib and/or bassinet, crib mattress, basic bedding and blankets, changing table, small dresser, rocking chair, monitor and diaper pail. Total: $1,100 or more

You'll spend a good amount of time and money feeding baby in the first year. Main items to purchase are bottles and equipment (nipples, brush), bibs, a highchair, utensils and burp cloths. Total: $200 or more (Note: If you're planning to breastfeed, add $200 for nursing items, such as a breast pump, nursing pillow and milk storage.)

Answer
My sister-in-law had one.
Very good if you are nervous, it goes off if baby has not took a breath for 20 secs not moved for 20 secs. My niece had stopped breathing twice when she was 4 days old and then at 3 weeks old due to a cold! My sister was a complete mess cos she was so frightened to put her down so the health visitor got her one on loan. She had a similar one for every child she had after that, good job really, it saved my nephew when he was 7 weeks old as he stopped breathing.
I am, thankfully, never experienced it but if i did, i know i would buy one! Reagrdless how much it cost if it saved my baby. (or my mental state)
When baby is old enough to move the chance of cot death is greatly reduced anyway. It still happens, dont get me wrong but most cot death tends to happen in very small babies, the majority of.
