Night sleep
Marijke
Hello moms
I just got a bit of a scare.
We have our son of almost 4 months, we woke him up at 22:45 to have a nice bath and then a nice bottle so he's full and then he can sleep nicely, that's what we always do and it usually goes well. But just after I put our son to bed in his sleeping bag, I went downstairs to rinse his bottle and brush my teeth and go to sleep, but as soon as I checked if he was still breathing I literally heard nothing, I took his little arm and let it drop, nothing happened again, I moved him gently back and forth and he started breathing again.. I found this so scary.. don't know if this is normal... luckily he's still sleeping in our room so if something happens I can jump in right away but with the breathing I'm getting worried... Has anyone here also experienced the same thing I just had?
Would love to hear from you.

My little boy sometimes sleeps so quietly that I get really panicked and check if everything is still okay. Now I have a Nannycare! It's a sensor mat that goes under the mattress and monitors the baby's breathing. Just Google it. I think it's ideal. As long as the green light is blinking, I can sleep peacefully.
