Breathing Monitors

Hi all!

Just wondering if anyone here has used or is planning on using a 'breathing monitor' on baby?

I have never heard of one of these but a friend of mine mentioned she will be using one that clips on to the nappy when baby is newborn until it goes into a cot - and then one that goes under the cot mattress when the baby moves into the cot.

I would love to hear what anyones experience is and whether these are a good idea/ work well? I didn't know they existed, let alone considered using one.

Thanks

I used one. I had huge anxiety issues and it helped me relax a little bit when DD slept. I will be using it again with this baby. I have the Angelcare one that goes under the mattress.

It is important to remember they don't cancel out the need to follow the SIDS guidelines though, they are more for peace of mind.
