I usually take this off while my lo sleeps but what are the recommendations?

My son has been wearing his for almost a year without any issues at all, I've never been worried at any moment.

You can take it off while they're sleeping, but I haven't found it necessary. They're really not long enough to get caught on anything.

The one I purchased is long enough for my daughter to fit in her mouth and she will occasionally chew on it; due to this fact I take it off her at night. Some people wrap it around their child's ankle instead because it stays in contact with the skin. Whatever you're comfortable with.

I put this on over the top of (in addition to) my baby's footed pajamas. This gives my baby a little added warmth, since blankets are unsafe to use.

Microfiber inserts are the only thing I'm aware of that you absolutely should not put next to your baby's skin. These are velour and so super soft, you'll actually want to put them next to baby's skin! If you're looking for a stay-dry option for night time, you can also cut and finish a strip of flannel slightly bigger than the insert to put between the baby's bum and the insert for a stay-dry feel (also recommended for use with prefolds). Doubled up with a prefold, these work well for night time!

We stopped using it when I continually caught him sleeping on his belly. The suit never really helped him sleep better, but it did stop him from rolling in the beginning and that was the issue (so he slept better because he was staying on his back). Unlike swaddling, where you can easily pop an arm out at a time, there is no real easy way to transition.

Definitely get a pack n play! They are multi functional and you can use them for years. We got the pea pod for vacation and our 13 month old wouldn't sleep in it. I think it was too intimidating for him.

Use Painters Tape - it will reinforce the Snuza if you have a super active little one.My twin girls are both tummy sleepers, and it has never bothered them. The sensor is pretty soft. One of my girls is very active and her Snuza's grip wasn't a match for her backscooting and practicing crawling every night. So now when we clip it on the girls we use a little piece of thin painters tape to help give it staying power. No more false alarms.

I had the same concern until I figured out a way to make it safer. Have baby wear it on his ankle UNDER his one piece romper or pajamas. He can't get at it that way . . .

Actually easier to leave it on all day. I would just remove it at night, wash occasionally. Also check belly and thigh area for cleanliness and make sure skin stays dry. I would wipe my dog down at night, powder him and put a leak proof pad under him for the night. I did leave it on 24 hrs occasionally towards the end when it was hard to maneuver him but wouldn't recommend it if the dog can move around too much.

Absolutely! The bassinet portion detaches from the base and is curved on the bottom so when you set it on the floor you can rock your little one. When we used ours for overnight sleeping we did take the hood off, but it works fine with it on too. There are also cloth straps that tuck into zippers on the outsides of the bassinet so once you take baby out you can pick it up easily.

I'm not a doctor, but I believe you are supposed to take it off at night and put it back on as soon as you get up in the morning. You may want to consult a professional though.

We are currently using it right now. I think our baby does get a little warm with it on. We typically put her to bed in the suit and a onsie. With the air conditioner, she wakes up with sweaty feet and clammy skin, but doesn't complain when wearing it. In fact, she won't sleep at all without it.

I would recommend the 6-9 month. Our little girl is 5 1/2 months old and 15.6 lbs and her 3-6 month sleep suit is getting snug. I'll be buying a 6-9 month suit for her soon. At least your little guy will be able to grow into it if it's a little loose at first but I think it would work perfectly!

Any pillow that won't allow your baby's head to touch the surface should work. However, if your baby's head easily sweats don't get it. Get the babymoon pillow in cotton not polyester. I got this pillow and babymoon pillow but I prefer the babymoon.

It's not going to be recommended by any seller to have it around your baby's neck without supervision. But, with that being said, naptime/bedtime are the times you need it the most! I've found a short strand that doesn't hang too low is best (but leaves plenty of room for movement around the neck). Watch your child to make sure they don't put it in their mouth and you should be fine. My daughter has worn her's for 2 years now starting at age 6 months and we have been just fine!

I love this product, it gives me peace of mind at night! Our baby was premature as well but not as premature as yours... Make sure when you clip on the Snuza that you fold over the diaper before clipping it on otherwise you will have false alarms!

Depends on what your child wears underneath and how warm you keep your house. If it's a warmer day/night I use the cotton (thin) Sleepsack. If it's a cold night I put the fleece on over a pajama. Or I can even put it on my toddler if she's only wearing a diaper and a light shirt.

Just a long sleeve onesy. No pants....she may get too hot that way. The only variation we do is in choosing a heavy or light sleep sack depending on the temperature. Get a few of them, tangled blankets are a thing of the past so you know they are warm and safe.
