5. A monitor for peace of mind from Owlet
The Owlet Smart Sock 2 provides a little help to parents for the hardest job in the world!

Using Bluetooth, the Smart Sock then sends this information to a base station which is designed to only notify you with lights and sounds if these levels fall out of range. Using Owlet’s app, you can also view real-time wellness data and receive direct notifications on your phone.
