Anyone use a Snuza Hero monitor?

[Deleted]

DD4 gave us a scare after delivery and I am already nervous about taking her home. I ordered the Snuza Hero to use to monitor her. I like that it clips to her vs. having to put her on a mat to track movement. Has anyone used this?

I did, almost 3 years ago and it was great! I'll probably get the monitor that attaches to the baby's foot for #2 since it seems a bit more secure.

Yep, we used one for a few months. A friend lost her newborn to SIDS two weeks before C was born, and we were terrified.

We did have a few false alarms when it fell off. That started happening more frequently at about 3 months old when he was moving around more frequently, so we stopped using it altogether (the false alarms were awful and terrifying). But it did give us peace of mind for a while.

I did until she could roll then we were getting false alarms. We got a few false alarms when she was littler but it was either the diaper wasn't tight enough or the snuza wasn't down far enough. We moved dd to her own room at a month so it was worth the reassurance

I use one and love it. We had a few false alarms as well but it's worth it for the piece of mind

Yes, until he could roll. No regrets even with the false alarms. Fold down the top of the diaper to give it more material to clip on to.

We have one, but never used it. E slept in our room for the first 6 months, and I was surprised at how aware I was of his breathing. If he had slept in his room early on, I probably would have used it.

Yep! We stopped using once she could roll.

Yes, I really appreciated having it and have recommended it to lots of other people. We had one instance where it might have been a false alarm, but H thought that there really may have been a problem (she had a traumatic birth and spent about a week coughing up fluid from her lungs).

I did, and I loved it. It's the only way I got any sleep when she was a newborn and I was an anxious mess, even with her sleeping in the bassinet right beside me.

The only times it went off were when it had come unattached from her diaper. We used it until she started sleeping on her belly (around 10 months, I think).

I did and like the others, teally liked it. After he started rolling over we then bought the Angelcare system and liked that okayish.
