Just got my Angelcare monitor- couple questions

PinkeLLe2 · January 2009

1- I'm going to have to get plywood since my crin has springs... does that not mess up the level of the mattress?

2- How does it pick up my baby's breathing if the sensor is under the mattress?

3- Does it matter if baby moves at night? DS is always lower down in the crib than where he started.

It does not affect the level of the mattress bc it is a thin piece of wood.

It feels the baby breathing (movement of chest), not exactly sure how it works it just does.

Doesn't matter if they move, my son is a wiggle worm and we always find him in a different spot and we have never had a problem.

We just have a thin board underneath it and it seems to not make a difference in the height.

No idea how it picks it up, but it does!

Doesn't matter, the sensor picks it up all over the crib. DS moves a lot too and it always picks up his breathing.

We have one but have only used it for a couple days.

I heard that once they start moving in the crib, it doesn't work. Someone I work with had to stop using it at 6 months.

Same here, I am not sure how it picks up the breathing through the mattress but it does! We have never had any problems with ours....
