“We heard about this product from The Sleep Lady, who wrote the guide portion of the app. She is by far my favorite baby sleep expert (and I’ve read them all, since my baby wouldn’t sleep!) Her tips helped a bunch! If you have a challenging sleep situation, you’ll appreciate the cry detection on this monitor. Some nights it feels like the baby is crying for almost an hour, but in reality it’s been 2 minutes. This monitor and app helps you get a better idea of how long it’s taking for your baby to fall asleep and reassures you that it’s okay if they fuss for a few minutes before falling asleep. It also helps you determine how to respond during night wakings. When pulled out of sleep, in your groggy state, you can check the app and see how long the baby has been fussing for (usually about 20 seconds) and observe them to see if they are putting themselves back to sleep or truly requiring you attention. Much better than going into the baby’s room while they are putting themselves back to sleep and waking them up fully! I also like that the wifi does not transmit continuously unless you are actively watching the feed. This is better for those of us concerned about EMFs … All in all, set up was easy and the monitor has been handy. It’s neat to see how my little one is learning to self-soothe.”
