Has anyone tried this on an older baby (around 1 year old) that wakes frequently?

I quit using around 6 months bc I got tired of replacing the batteries near daily.

The other one has a vibrate feature that tries to rouse baby before it goes off, I think. I had it first. It would vibrate after so many second if inactivity to see if baby would move....if not, then it would alarm. Either one works great and is a necessity. My daughter is almost 2 and still wears it at night for my peace of mind (after SIDS is a risk of SUDC into their teens....). I'll keep it on her until she refuses to wear it anymore!

Hello... I bought this pillow for my son when he was 4 months old to round out his head a bit and to avoid one of those terrible helmets. It worked!!! He sleeps with is every night and is now a bit over 1 year old. I too was a bit nervous but he LOVED it. A great pillow for the $. If you are nervous and I was too....use it the first couple of times at nap time and check up periodically. then if all goes well and it will use it at night time. Hope this helps you :-) If just for looks and cute, You should wait for 6 months. My baby had a flat head so it was really necessary... either way your baby will love it!! Hello...

It might help a little bit but doesn't stretch out all that big. I also find that the suction cups pop off of the window occasionally... May not be ideal for waking a sleeping baby:)

My preschooler was not sleeping through the night (waking 8-10 times), and we had a baby on the way. We had to do something or we were never going to get any sleep, so we went to our acupuncturist who showed us where to put these on his ears. He started sleeping through the night, waking in a good mood, his appetite was increased (it was a fight to get him to eat anything) and he started having fairly regular BM's (which he had always had problems with). He is like a new kid and life is a lot more enjoyable for him.

I'm still using it for my 2 month old. He's not rolling over yet--but I will say that if he has a really wiggly night just on his back it gets dislodged and the alarm sounds. I don't put it on him when I wear him in the carrier because it seems like it would press against his tummy. It isn't big-but it's big enough that it would be uncomfortable. I don't think I'd use it for tummy sleepers.

I used it when my baby was three months and it was perfect. He slept like a baby! Lol!

It's not unusually loud for velcro--but if you object to velcro in general, it does make the usual sound of a long, wide strip. However, if you're baby sleeps soundly enough to sleep through taking the carrier off and laid down, she probably won't be awakened by velcro. It hasn't been a problem for me (mine's more likely to wake simply by being put down in a new position--but the velcro doesn't startle her at all).

No...i found this product useless...it only elevated head at best which worried me more than anything because babies airway should remain neutral and she kept sliding down anyways or turning sideways. I found this product useless and dangerous. Mine still sleeps in rock n play and she's 5 months old. I. Love it because she stays in place and doesn't slide down. Good luck! Hang in there

I don't think it will work on a one year old...the head pillow is small and my three month old is already growing out of it already.

I have given one to each of my now 10 grandchildren, and they have become the favorite thing to sleep on. ... Some have been stomach sleepers, some back sleepers, and there have been no problems. If you're a bit worried, I'd just wait til baby was 6-mo or so.

From what I remember, no. It will provide vibration and or music for a certain amount of time. The other option is if you leave it on all night it will turn on when it recognizes a noise from baby, stay on for a while and then reset to respond again when baby wakes. Hope this helps

My little guy is 7.5 months old and we had him in the Large about three months ago. It was big but it was still effective and he didn't mind sleeping in it! It wasn't a magical experience as he still is up every two hours to nurse (no fault of the sleep suit of course!) but it REALLY did help with the amount of jerking movements that would wake him up. He is 18lbs and 28 inches and the large still fits his body but his arms and legs have grown out of the length of the sleeves (poor boy goes to bed in high waters but we are still using the sleep suit ;)!!!! So if you want a snug fit go with the smaller size! Hope my babble helps! My little guy is 7.5 months old and we had him in the Large about three months ago.

I wish. But it just has 15 or 30. It's usually enough time to get him toSleep and relax. But if not then I just click it off then back on for another 30 min. Works like a charm!

I bought mine for a 7.5 month old and it works like a charm. I think it would work on an older toddler.. Heck it works on me! It's very effective.

No, its not for my 7 month old. The Snuza was absolutely fabulous when my tummy sleeper was very young, but now that she can move around it falls off quickly and sounds false alarms. I havent been able to use it since she was about 4 1/2 months old. I would look into an Angle Care if you're still concerned.

I've found that when swaddled it still works. The only issue we've had is if you have the baby with you in the bed, it reads your movement as the babies. Not a problem if you're awake but if you fall asleep be aware it may not alert you if baby stops breathing. We also have had it go off a few times for no apparent reason. But over all it is worth getting.
