My 6 month old is on an Apnea Monitor, and has learned how to unplug it at night. Any suggestions?
Written by admin on March 8, 2010 – 6:04 am -My 6 month old son wears an Apnea monitor, only when he is sleeping during the night. (He wears it because of the sudden loss of our first son, and because he also has breath holding spells.) During the night, he has started to grab the wires from the electrodes and pull them out. Of course, this sets of the Loose-Lead alarm. The alarms on the Apnea Monitor are VERY loud, and the only way to make them stop is to fix it. My husband and i are having to get up almost every hour to fix him doing this, and loosing much sleep. Since he is old enough to roll around now, he can find a way to get a hold of the wires; it seems to be a game to him. My husband jokingly said to buy a baby straight-jacket, so he cant grab the wires….lol (i dont think they make those). What can i do? He has to stay on the monitor until age 1!
(Okay, for those of you who dont know, and Apnea Monitor monitors his heart and breath rate, and if he stops breathing or his hear rate changes, an alarm goes off.)

If you wear a monitor for sleep apnea and hold your breath will it record as not breathing?
Written by admin on February 24, 2010 – 12:38 pm -Just curious, little one likes to play. So I wondered if he holds his breath on purpose during night will the monitor record as not breathing.
The test will be done at home on a portable monitor.

Watching Tv and Clark decides to set off his monitor. This is what a normal night is like for us. In this one, Clark had his meds upped several days before. Still he is setting them off.
