Re: SNUZA?

I used it. It was a little too sensitive when my boys were newborn - they were preemies and so tiny and even the smallest diaper was loose so the device would frequently separate from the body and go off. Once they plumped up there were less false alarms - but still at least one every other night for at least one of my triplets. But I actually liked that it was so sensitive. When it was quiet then I knew all was well and I could sleep soundly. I also liked that the first line of defense is to vibrate to wake the baby in the event of an apnea episode, before the alarm goes off. to my k owledge the angel care does not try to rouse the baby. I used it till they were about 6 months.

11 months old and we are still using the snuza. I don't plan on stopping it anytime soon! We've had a few false alarms. It's fallen if his diaper or he peed too much and it lost skin contact. It also went off a couple of times for no reason, so I don't know if they were false alarms, or the real deal. We'll never know, but I'm glad I have it. Just a little tip. If u get it, get a piece if Velcro and put a little piece of the rough side on the back of the monitor, on the battery cover. It'll help hold the snuza in place on the diaper.

Re: SNUZA?

I used them when they were little. they were in the same room as us and I stopped after awhile b/c I just didnt need them. It was too hectic to put them on and off both babies during night feedings and once DH left it sitting while changing and it went off and scared me. I guess they DO work lol.

I have 2 for sale if you want. $60 each.

Re: SNUZA?

I used it with my son and loved it! We cloth diaperd him so I clipped it to the inner diaper and put the diaper cover over it which held it on a bit tighter to the skin, Lessing the false alarms. It went off twice where I went running in. My son was so still I couldn't see him breathing and the loud alarm and vibrating didn't wake him. Both those times I grabbed him and woke him. They could have been just false alarms but I was happy for it to alarm. I knew it was working.

Thanks for the replies. I am going to do a bit more research but it sounds easier than the Angel Care Monitor. Strawberry2468 I may take you up on your offer (though I only need 1! Where are you located (you can FM me if you want)?

I had both. after about a week I found the snuza to be annoying. it didn't sit right w their diapers. the angel care was perfect and only had one false alarm (but that was because my daughter rolled in the corner of the crib.
