Breathing monitor???

Question

I already have the sense-U breathing monitor and I am 50/50 happy with it. I’m looking to buy another one that might work better and is more reliable. How is the owlet? That’s next on my list. What one do you recommend or what has worked well for you? 
FYI I am well aware of the false alarms and everything these things can give but to me a little peace of mind is better than none :)

Answer

We are using the Snuza Go! Clips on the diaper and signals an alarm when breathing stops for more than 17,18, or 20 seconds. Also flashes a light with each breath and can be programmed to make noise with each breath. My son is now 9wks and I ordered it when he was 4wks after he scared me sleeping through the night (9hrs)! It has 4+ star reviews on Amazon for $87.99 and thankfully we have not had any scares to test it's alarm, hopefully won't.

Answer

I have had the Owlet with my last two babies. My youngest is 7 months and my other child is 20 months. We absolutely love it and have NEVER had a false alarm.  I think the majority of people that have false alarms either don’t have the sock on the correct way, the correct sock size, or have the sock too far away from the base. The Owlet kept my daughter from being hospitalized. She was 8 weeks old and I noticed her oxygen levels started going from 98-100 percent to 85-89 so I took her into the doctor and the doctor thought she was fine but went ahead and did an RSV swabs and sure enough it was positive. We started her on breathing treatments and I credit the Owlet for catching it so early. My doctor said that almost all of her RSV patients require a hospital stay when they are under 6 months and she has never had a Preemie with rsv stay out of the hospital. (My daughter was born 4 weeks early and was only 8 weeks at the time)

Answer

I love my owlet and we haven’t had a false alarm and have been using it since she was 2w old when she came home from the NICU
