You need to know your child’s health status NOW, and whether or not you have any immediate cause for concern. Owlet acts as a guardian, standing watch over your child at night. You’ll feel an immense sense of RELIEF wash over you knowing that Owlet is designed to alert you if your baby stops breathing, or if her little heart rate is too high or too low.
