I have used the Owlet sock since bringing my baby home from the hospital and it has been a saving grace. Without this sock I honestly dont think I would have gotten any rest as a first time mom. It gives me a peace of mind that I will be alerted if anything is wrong. I recommend this product to any new mom!
As a first time mom, this has given me the peace of mind I needed to sleep well at night! I didn’t start using this on my daughter until she was 3 months as I was hesitant to purchase due to the high price point… I honestly wish I had this from the beginning! It would have made me feel more confident in the newborn stage. Especially when you’re half asleep and struggling to track how many hours your baby slept the night before on other apps, this does it all for you! Totally worth it.
Owlet has been a very helpful tool for us. I especially like being able to track oxygen levels and heart rate, and I’ve found the heart-rate trends useful for understanding my baby’s sleep cycles. It also provides an extra layer of support for monitoring during the night.
Once you learn how to position the sock properly, incorrect readings and alerts are very rare. I would recommend using Owlet as a supporting tool rather than a replacement for observing your baby (things like breathing pattern, skin and lip colour, and overall behaviour are still important). Overall, we’ve had a very positive experience with it and it’s worth it! Nowadays I can’t imagine our routine or nights without it.
Amazing! When my son was born I would be awake from 8-30 pm — 5am because I was scared and all these crazy thoughts were going around in my head . I knew about the sock but it was a little too pricy $$ . Until I decided to buy it , I was finally able to sleep . It has only notified me once about his oxygen which that was amazing . I woke up to check on him and he rolled over and when I grabbed him he was facing down . So scary but thanks to the owlet i was able to wake up .
Overall it’s a great tool for tracking sleep and gives us great piece of mind. Would be more helpful if it gives live updates on oxygen levels. Currently it’s only an average of the last 10 minutes. It could also be improved by extending the distance allowed between the sock and the base.
