Owlet sock and cam – Owlet Review

We do love our sock and cam and currently still use both for our 10 month old. My husband jokes that I will still put this on our child when she is sixteen! It’s a peace of mind to know we have and extra set of eyes while we are sleeping and while she is sleeping! I also love that when the grandparents come over to watch her for us that I am still able to check in on her while she is sleeping to give me peace of mind. Pros for both, we love that while we are not at home we are still able to check on her without needing WiFi. We also love that you can look back the next day and see the pattern of how she slept. The night cam is great and so the sound. Sometimes we can even hear her breathing. We also love how flexible the cam is on its base. The sock is great too and love that it comes in three sizes. We love that it monitors her while we are sleeping or doing something else, and gives us security. Cons for both, we have a lot of trouble with the sound! When the sound works it works awesome, when it doesn’t work it goes in and out and sometimes it just randomly stops. We don’t like that if there is no WiFi or bad WiFi signal then you are unable to use the cam. The sock tends to signal false alarms which of course gives us heart attacks making us wake the baby and making sure she is ok. Not a big fan of the base having to be in or super close to the baby’s bed due to when the alarm does go off for any reason, it’s right there and wakes the baby! When the cam and sock go out and you have to restart it all, until you have done it a time or two, it’s not the easiest thing to do. And lastly you for most use your phone as the monitor to watch the baby and listen to the baby, even tho there is an option for background nose, so you can use your phone to do other things, you can not see your baby. I wish there was some way of having a small little box in the corner of your phone that will stay up when you are using your phone.
