crib movement sensors?

YoungSpark

i've been lookin into those little sensors that is placed under the crib and goes off when the baby doesnt move for about 20 seconds, what i dont understand is, if the baby is sleeping hes not going to move so is it going to be going off all the time when he is sleeping?

Answer
We have the angelcare system and it gives us peace of mind that is for sure! We have had a few false alarms with the system either from my son moving into the top or bottom corner or his crib or his new habit of sleeping sitting up with his face in his lap! lol I guess it doesn't monitor his breathing through his butt surprise surprise! Even with a few false alarms it was the best investment I ever got! I would rather a false alarm where I check on him then the alternative of him not breathing! I would highly suggest getting one especially if you have high anxiety about SIDS! My son is almost 10 months and I still rely on it!

will baby-movement-monitors prevent cot death?

Answer
There are no guarantees . . . but every little bit of extra protection helps and is worth it - especially if you sleep just a little bit better in those early months.

We got the BebeSounds Monitor with the movement sensor pad for our twins - there was one false alarm - but otherwise it has been great.

Best wishes!

At what age did you stop using the tick alarm on your angel care baby monitor?

<3 my baby

I have been using the angel care monitor with the tick alarm. Its a sensor to monitor the baby's breathing. My baby is now 6 months old and is starting to move all around her crib and when she gets in a corner the monitor doesn't pick up her movement and the alarm goes off. I am considering if i want to stop using it but I am scared of SIDS...

Answer
Most SIDS cases occur before the baby is 4 months old, after 6 months they're "out of the woods", then after 12 months they're okay. It's up to you, 6 months seems like the reasonable time to stop using it, but I can totally understand your concern - you're a mum and you worry like every other one of us.

Whenever you choose to stop using it, you'll wake up every 2 hours and listen to hear them breathing - like me! Lol.

At what age did you put your baby into there own room?

My life is

This is what I am planning to do when my Little Man arrives I am planning to keep him in my room for the first 3 months then put him in his own room with a monitor and one of the newer motion sensors that you lay underneath him to monitor his movement and breathing of course!
What do you think about that?

Answer
I put my son in his own room at 2 months, and only used a monitor. I heard the alarm thing goesoff to much. When we put our son in his crib, he slept longer, and we didn't hear all his little noises so we slept better.
