Baby Sleeping But You’re Not. Track Your Baby’s Heart Rate To Help Ease Your Anxiety At Night.

Every new mom does it. Just when you are falling asleep you get scared about SIDS and you feel the urge to go check if your little one is ok. All the hormones are going crazy in your body and you feel super protective. Good news! There is finally a baby heart rate tracker that helps us sleep better.

I remember when I brought my first twin babies home. I wanted to bring those little heart trackers that stick to their chest home with me. My thinking was that I would sleep better just knowing something would notify me if anything levels were not in a normal range.

I bought something that went under their mattress but it did not have good reviews. But now there is something similar to what I wanted to bring home from the hospital. The Owlet Smart Sock that tracks oxygen level and heart beat. What an awesome product for new moms. This brings a sense of relief which helps new moms sleep better.

Owlet Smart Sock Details

  • No cords! This system is wireless.
  • 3 different sizes of socks for a great fit.
  • Check heart rate and oxygen level on your phone in real time.
  • Base station notifies you with lights and sounds that something is wrong and you can set up the app on your phone to do so as well
  • Option to purchase annual subscription to track all of your baby’s heart rate and oxygen level history (I didn’t find this necessary but if you have a NICU baby or a possible health issue this would be amazing)

Owlet Smart Sock comfortably fits on your baby’s foot. It monitors their oxygen level and heart rate just like the monitors at the hospital. It makes a sound on the monitor base and through the app on your phone. You can be notified of your babies vitals during their nap even if you are at work.

Any product that helps me sleep is worth it in my mind. Sleep makes us all better people. So no more hovering over the crib at night with blurry eyes trying to see if your little one is ok.

A quick reminder of the rules of safe sleep for newborns.

  • Put babies to sleep on their backs
  • Sleep on a firm mattress with only a tight fitting sheet
  • No blankets or toys in crib
  • Pacifiers are recommended

Click here for free shipping. It is a must on any baby registry wish list or if you are a new mom that keeps waking up to check on your little one. Calm your mind and get more sleep.

    I’ll be honest, I never had that fear. And I couldn’t imagine being worried. We co slept so that may have really helped. This is a really great for those moms who worry.

    I never even gave that a thought. My kids went into their own rooms from day one and I could hear them breath on the baby monitor so I knew they were ok.

    I wish I had this when my twins were younger as I was really anxious about SIDS and their sleeping at night. This would have been really helpful to ease my fears.

    I honestly didn’t have that fear with my second, with my first for sure. But I know a lot of mom’s with NICU babies that would have loved/love this monitor for sure.

    This came out (or was at publicized well) right after I had my baby. We started out with the baby in the bassinet and she would kick and move around so much that within 6 weeks I had enough. She went into her crib in her own room. We continued to nurse for 18 months and believe me she let me know she was alive and awake in there! Ha! I will say I’m also in the camp that never had the fear of whether the baby is alive or OK. Sometimes, even now, I will go in just to look at her. But it’s just a loving moment watching her sleep, not a moment of worry. I will add we also followed all of the current sleep rules you mentioned so that gave me extra reassurance.

    When our child was a baby, I too went through the anxiety of if he was ok or not. It’s human nature. Thankfully, we have technology like this monitor to ease our worries.

    Oh how interesting that its socks! My sister used a mat and she loved it, but got tired of the alarms when the baby naturally moved off it. Socks would be so much better!

    I wish there was this kind of product when my kid was a baby. I was definitely a nervous wreck checking up on her while she was asleep. Will past your helpful post to my new mom friends!

    If I had a baby, I would need one of these. Otherwise I definitely spend the whole night over the crib watching. Anything that helps ease mom’s anxiety is a good thing.

    Such a device that monitors oxygen levels has long been overdue and will really save a lot of babies’ lives and help parents ease the anxiety that comes with having a newborn. I was quite at ease with my daughters when they were newborns though but not every parent is the same.

    I do think those first couple months, nothing made more scared that actually putting my baby down to sleep. The owlet would have been really helpful to ease those anxieties.

    Great review of the Owlet. I have to say, I really appreciate your gentle reminders of safe sleep for babies. As a RN I can’t stress it enough how important safe sleep is for babies.

    Well, that’s really cool that it’s a sock. That makes it convenient. I must admit I was never a “checker.” Once I put the baby down, that was it! Luckily, mine survived. 🙂 Of course mine usually woke up every couple hours anyway in the beginning.

    What a great tool to have for new moms. It’s amazing how tech can help give us peace of mind so we can get rest while our babies are resting too.

    This is awesome. I will be looking into this once baby #8 is here. I always had such a rough time falling asleep those early weeks, and I think this would give such a peace of mind.

    This is wonderful advice, especially for a new mom. When my best friend had her first baby, she could barely sleep worry about him. She could have used this.

    I’m pretty sure every new parent goes through the feeling of not being able to rest well with their baby away from them. I know I absolutely did!
