Breathing Monitors

Everyone experiences brief pauses in their breathing called Apnea – even young babies and children. Anyone with a young baby acknowledges the anxiety associated with checking throughout the night that their little one is comfortably breathing and sleeping soundly. And what better way to provide yourself with reassurance and allay anxieties than by purchasing a baby breathing monitor. The brief pauses that we all experience are considered normal, however there is cause for concern if the breathing stops for 20 seconds or longer, in babies and young children Apnea usually resolves itself of its own accord and may even be considered as part of the child’s normal breathing pattern, however only a doctor can determine if that is the case. At Babysafety.ie we offer both the Respisense Ditto Breathing Monitor and the Snuza-Hero Mobile Breathing Monitor that work to detect the tummy movements of your baby as she sleeps. Both monitors will reassert movement in babies if no movement has been detected for 15 seconds and an alert will signal if no movement is detected after 20 seconds.
