[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got the owlet.  I was like you and high anxious.

I know the pediatricians don't recommend it but it brought me some peace.  I stopped using it every night once baby turned 6 months.

Baby is 10 months now and I will use it if they are sick just to make sure they are getting enough oxygen.[/quote]

I would also recommend the Owlet. I had the older version and I only got a false alarm once or twice (I think after not using it for a period of time). The new one is supposed to be better at preventing this. It gave me such peace of mind while I slept. For what it’s worth, my pediatrician actually said she would have used it for her kids if it had been around when they were babies! She just wanted to make sure we still followed safe sleep practices and but had no issues with us using it. It’s great you’re getting help for your anxiety but I do think people who don’t suffer from PPA (I didn’t) also get anxious about SIDs too. It’s scary! But as every said, it is so so rare and you just have to keep reminding yourself of that.[/quote]
