Owlet Sock Secondhand

Hi, I’m thinking about buying an owlet sock for our first baby, but thought I could get a secondhand one from Vinted. Any advice on what to look out for if I do get one second hand - I’ve heard something about the app not working properly in them sometimes?

I don't think they do much now the app has been updated. I could be wrong but they aren't allowed to show things like 02 sats and stuff on the app. so pretty useless. I think it was to do with it not been medically approved. If You're set on what the owlet is supposed to do, you will be better off looking at the dream sock, same company but approved, it also lasts longer until they are 5.

You need to make sure it is one of the newer designs as after some updates the older ones no longer work

Id get the owlet 3 if you are buying second hand. We had one for our son and it was great. It does show heart rate and O2 status on the app so can be helpful in checking on them. The owlet smart sock 3 also lasts until approximately 5, you just have to buy the socks in the larger size (the sensor just slots in) x

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
