Snuza/Levana Oma sensor with CDs?

Milagros315

Has anyone used one of these motion sensors with cloth diapers? When I was looking through the reviews for the Snuza/Oma, I noticed that a few people gave negative reviews because they said the monitors wouldn't stay on cloth diapers. Has anyone used one of these and had success? Did you use something else (like the Angelcare pad) that worked well?

I'm trying to decide if one of these things will help me relax or just freak me out more than necessary.

We used an Angel Care with the two pad sensors. It worked great. No experience, good or bad with a Snuza or Levana.

FWIW I was a wreck with my oldest until he was like 18 months old. I literally checked on him 3-4 times a night every night. Hence the AC for the second. I was much more chill with him though. I think I would have been fine without the AC.

Thanks so much for the input! 

@Mapleme - Good to hear! I think I'd prefer the clip-on so I can use it when he's napping anywhere in the house so I'm glad to hear that it can work with cloth diapers.

@CLLDLL - I will probably be the same way with my son (this is my first). My anxiety used to be really bad, but it's been better the past few years. For some reason, I think dealing with IF helped a lot. In some ways, I think it would be better for me to skip the sensor and learn to cope with the anxiety...but I'm sure I'll have enough other things to worry me!

I used a Snuza with DD in cloth diapers. I didn't have any problems until she started curling up on her side like a shrimp. Then the diapers would gape sometimes and we had a few false alarms. This didn't start until about 8-9 months. Before that she was on her back, or she would roll to her stomach without it causing issues with the Snuza.
