I have recently purchased this product as a secondary monitor that I can use during the daytime while my baby sleeps in her moses basket. A conventional monitor with sensor pad will not work in a moses basket so I thought I would give this a try. I was a little dubious and thought the baby might not like wearing it or that it would slip off the nappy during movement.
I have actually been really delighted with it and keep showing it off to my visitors as I am so impressed with what a great invention it is. It is like a mini pager device for a baby and sits very securely on the top of a standard disposable nappy. I have tested it to see what the baby would do when it goes off and the buzzer is very mild and just enough vibration to gently move the baby. The alarm starts off very low and then gets loud only if there is no response. I am completely confident leaving my baby to sleep while I can get on with the housework or have a bath! I will also use it when going on holiday (no packing) and when using babysitters as it gives me extra confidence that they will be alerted should the baby have a problem.
Yes it is expensive but what price is peace of mind. Thoroughly recommended to all nervous parents like myself who would like extra reassurance that their baby is safe and well

I really can't figure out why "worried mum" would shrill hysterically that we are not to trust this product. This product does exactly as it promises to do and as for the batteries not lasting long, that's simply not true.
When my son died of cot death at 6 months I was left with his twin and an understandable pathological fear that I would lose her too. (As a twin and having lost a sibling to cot death she was at an increased risk of sudden infant death.) I was a nervous wreck, standing over my daughter all the time, checking for breath with a mirror and generally half crazy with fear that she would go too. The Respisense gave me peace of mind. It meant I didn't have to constantly check on Emma because I knew she was ok, since the alarm wasn't sounding. It fits nice and snug to the nappy (although I found that rolling the top of the nappy over a few times to create a thick little lip was necessary)and I quickly found that I trusted it because it rarely went off. (The alarm I was using before consisted of wire taped to Emma's tummy, which were consistently coming off. The first time the alarm ever sounds your heart is absolutely in your mouth. When it is going off seven, eight, nine, ten times a night, you quickly become complacent, which is probably as unhealthy as being hysterical.
My daughter is a beautiful four year old now, but I still have the respisense in my drawer for when I have another child, as statistically I am more likely to lose another child to cot death having already lost one.

I have now been using this monitor everyday for 9 months - since my now 9 month old baby came home from hospital. I intend to continue using until the battery runs out.
We have had very few false alarms which have all been due to the monitor coming loose. I find I can sleep soundly knowing I will be alerted to any problems with my little boy's breathing. I would rather have 100 false alarms than not know if there was a problem.
I noted that 1 review mentioned how quiet the alarm is and when I tried mine out it started quite but became louder quite quickly - I am sure most people would be woken by it.
I would strongly recommend this product to any mum who like me needs a little bit of extra reassurance that baby is well.

Well worth the money
After much thought and thinking that we are over-reacting this little gizmo gives you peace of mind especially at night time well worth a look.

Does what it says, but could be better
Firstly in terms of detecting breathing and movement, this product does do this well. It has only gone off twice, both times my father did not put it on the nappy properly! Read more

DO NOT TRUST THIS PRODUCT
If you really care about your baby's safety then stay well clear of this product. A movement sensor pad is the real thing you can trust. Read more
