- When I shared a clip of the Snoo on my Instagram story, I got a ton of requests to post a review on TH-cam. It’s a really expensive bassinet, so I hope this review is helpful to any of you who are considering buying it. Have you tried the Snoo? Share your thoughts in the comments!

#Snoo #Review - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I wish the Snoo worked for us, but it’s really important to watch and see what I said. There were specific decisions I made that probably didn’t set us up for success. If you’re going to go with the Snoo, you should commit to it.
Susan Yara I’m so thankful for your review. I’m a mom of 6 & felt bad I couldn’t afford it before rental, but it sounds like my babies would’ve reacted similarly. Love you as a journalist, love you even more as a Mama whose opinions I can trust. Thanks for being you & ps your kiddos are so adorable! 🥰
Susan Yara I’m considering bed sharing like you do. I’d like a snuggle me organic but they are sooooo pricey and she needs the bigger size because she’s 6 months. Any recommendations?
Lol. This like saying “I wanted to use a hammer to screw in a nut and made this decision consciously and it probably didn’t set it up for success. It didn’t work for us, unfortunately. Really wish it did.”
Thank you for this review!! I was really, really close to renting one for my first. I loved the idea of the science behind it and of course it’s a gorgeous piece of furniture. I ended up using a hand me down bassinet from my sister in law that I thought looked superrrr corny and I wasn’t thrilled with at first. It was frilly and had a bear mobile with cheesy music and....my son LOVED it. Between birth to three months he could hang out there while I got a WHOLE SHOWER just watching his bears and listening to that music. It didn’t rock or vibrate or anything but it really worked for us. Taught me a lesson that sometime you just need to lean into the cheese.
We did the exact same thing - bedsharing at night and snoo for naps and now the first three hour stretch of bedtime. Honestly for us it has been worth every single penny. We had to find the exact combination that worked for us of getting her down and settings but I’m so very thankful for it. Thanks for the video!
We bought the SNOO about a week after our baby was born. He couldn’t stand the Halo bassinet but immediately calmed down in a swing. But swings aren’t safe for sleeping, which led me to research and find the SNOO. We’ve been using it since about two weeks old - he is 7 weeks now - and we love it. We use it for all naps and nighttime. It helps calm him down when he wakes up with gas or just because, and I can now put him in awake at nap time and he soothes to sleep without having to be rocked. Loving it!
I'm so sad the Snoo didn't work out. I've been singing its praises since I got it in 2017. We're on our 2nd child who is almost too big for it but both of my girls loved it.
Jasmine Same! I wish it worked but at the same time, I don’t think we had the right situation.
My baby sleeps really well overnight in the Snoo. He’s 8 weeks old and giving me 8 hour stretches. He naps poorly everywhere though, including the Snoo. He usually naps 25-50 minutes, regardless of where we place him.
Rose1087 I don’t have a snow but my son was the exact same way. He’s 7 months and he is just starting to nap for 1 hour plus naps
My son had days and nights mixed up so he would only sleep 2-3hrs at night. Lots of crying and fussing...me? lots of wailing at night cause I was so tired. At around 7 wks I bought snoo. That night he slept 8hrs. Woke up only once to get fed. He is 3 months old and ever since snoo he’s been sleeping 10-11 hrs at night. Still wakes up once to get fed. For my baby, snoo works like magic.
Would love to hear more about how you do bed sharing. Do you just put her on your bed or you put her in something like a dock a tot then on your bed?
I’m sorry it didn’t work for you! It has been a lifesaver for us with our second! I was terrified of the sleep deprivation I had with my first and thought it was worth the expense to give the SNOO a try! We bought it secondhand and I can’t sing it’s praises enough!
I love how you always say kids are so different bc it’s the truest thing. My baby whose now two had horrible eczema and was a terrible sleeper bc of it. But you just have no clue what your kids disposition is gonna be! Mine is sooooo awake. Always has been. And then I know some kids who slept through from the beginning. So many factors to consider and you won’t know until that baby pops out!
Pop o pop lol na
You hit the nail on the head, Susan. The snoo can be wonderful, but you have to consistently use it. It took me 6 weeks before my baby embraced it fully and those days are hard and exhausting. I am glad you found something that worked for your family.
The snoo has been a blessing to my family and I hope others give themselves a chance to try it out if they can fit it into their budget.
My three month old has used the Snoo since day 1. He has never had an issue. Also, I am 100% sold because of their stats: no babies have been injured or died or SIDS while using a Snoo. That’s all I needed to hear
Any tips for a ftm with a snoo? Do you recommend waiting until baby is almost asleep before putting them in?
I have such a bad baby fever and your precious daughter is not helping me! She is absolutely gorgeous little baby!
Thanks so much for your honest review Susan! I think this would have really worked for our first born - he really loved any rocking and often only slept in a swing (dangerous I know, but sleep deprivation makes you do desperate things). But man, that price tag is a killer
I really wanted the snoo at first and I felt guilty about not being able to afford it but I’m so glad I passed on it! I feel like there’s way too many of these expensive baby gadgets targeted to new moms/sleep deprived moms. Videos like these definitely help to navigate this area ❤️ thank you
My son loved it. We just returned our rental this last week. He transitioned into a crib smoothly. We started the move just after 5 months, just in case. We used the app. You can raise the level from another room if the baby is not calming quickly. 🤷♀️
so glad you made a video about this. I would love to hear more about your co-sleeping experience, what has worked for you this time, and what recommendations do you have? Thank you
Snoo is having $400 off deal right now btw!
Nice info. I am sticking with my toddler old basinet from chicco for my coming soon baby girl
Snoo didn't work for me🥰 But thanks for sharing your advice💖💕
Just started the video and I’m HOPING this is a good review because I just got my snoo yesterday 😂 I’m due in June!
How did it go for you? My wife and I just rented one for our 2 month old to get her to sleep better
I’d love to hear how you bed shared with your babies! We’ve resulted to that also since my baby won’t sleep in his crib. Thank you!
I had the same experience as you . My baby won’t go past 30 min in the snoo. He doesn’t like swaddle he likes to be free. When it goes up levels he would scream until it stopped working .
Not posting this to be a jerk, but just a bit of advice. I think that its unfair to review a product and say that it did not work when you did not use the snoo as recommended (which is as early as possible and as often as possible, including night sleep and naps). I think this review is a bit misleading since you openly admit in the video that you bed share with your daughter and did not exclusively use the snoo for all sleep time.
Bed share? Thought that's not recommended!
I don’t know if my situation can relate to yours but my son only naps 30-45 minutes during the day, and he is in a crib... I’m not saying that the Snoo could not be the problem, but maybe something to consider? I hope she will nap good in her crib because it’s definitely tough to get things done during the day when baby only sleeps such short times.
Very good point that the baby may hate it when the rocking pick up once she wakes up
I'm so happy there's a renting option available - especially for something my baby will grow out of, somewhat quickly! I'm sorry it didn't work for you, Susan. Fingers crossed it works for me - due in April!
Did it work for you? I’m due next month
Mamaroo just came out with a bassinet that moves like the snoo and the mamaroo swing. Way more affordable! The baby market totally takes advantage of mamas who are desperate to get their babies to sleep and soothe them
The Misfit Mama I don’t think it responds to baby’s cries and escalates as baby ‘s crying escalates though. Not exactly the same.
I’m having a similar situation with the SNOO, my baby is a month old and she’ll sleep perfectly fine with me but i’ve always been nervous because everyone tells me not to do that. Will you be making a video on how you let her sleep with you and sleep training?
Have you tried Taking Cara Babies "the ABCs of sleep"? Great class on sleeping training. She's on Instagram.
soooo maybe a rocking crib and save 1K ? haha it does look really aesthetic though!
Would love to hear your bed-sharing rips, tricks, routine!
Hi Susan I really like your videos n I really do follow the skin care routine that you shared.... please make a video of face shaving 🙏 coz I’m really confused about it either I do or not?
Nothing to do with the Snoo... Love your videos and content though! I would love to hear your thoughts on using exclusively oil cleansers. I’ve seen a lot more on my feeds recently and would love some thoughts! Thanks!
lovely stuff
Can you talk on why you aren’t breastfeeding anymore? I’m 5 months pp and I love breastfeeding but I would love to add more work days to my week and also going on a big trip to Australia in a few months where baby can’t come so idk if I should start weaning?! It’s hard mentally for me! It was so hard to get my baby to learn to breastfeed but idk if it’s my time. Financially I almost need to add more days to my work week! Can you share how you decide? Why? I need other mamas opinions!!
When my baby isn't breastfeeding anymore, he kept crying. My sister gave me a breastfeeding cover as a gift. I suck breastmilk out with a pump at work and then use a bottle to feed. I have a lot of time, I recommend it to you, I hope to help you, amzn.to/3cRJtsE
I thought I was crazy but omg this is exactly same for us
I see those swaddles being used with so many babies but it gives me so much anxiety... they can’t even move their little arms.... idk... just something MY brain can’t wrap around🤷♀️❤️🇨🇦but I was also that mom who couldn’t bare the sound of my baby crying... I did whatever it took to soothe her.. she slept in her crib once... she’s grown up to be an amazing young lady🥰❤️🇨🇦 some babies love their crib & some don’t🤷♀️😉
I thought the same at first! My husband and I thought it looked a bit creepy, But then I tried it and my son slept so much better after velcroing him into the tiny straight jacket haha
@susanyara which baby apps do you use?
HI Susan!
I briefly heard in your video that you like bedsharing with your babies. I also got very paranoid from others telling me about the dangers of bedsharing and I was hoping you could do a video about it in the future. It would really help me out because my baby loves sleeping with me, but I'm so restless from having such anxiety at night. He gets so much sleep he even makes the 6 hour stretches sometimes at 3 months old, but again I get so restless from waking up every hour to make sure he's okay. If you could make a video about your experience with bedsharing like how and what you do when you go to sleep with your baby that would be much appreciated!
Or don’t promote it, since 40% of SIDS happen because of bedsharing...
@@leah6015 well it’s a very controversial topic and of course that is one of the dangerous cautions of bed sharing. There is however safe bed sharing that includes having only one person in the bed and having borders along the bed. My son slept in my arm so there was absolutely no way I could turn and squish him. Bed sharing can also improve your child’s anxiety there are many studies that show your baby still has anxiety even if you leave them crying to sleep. Just a thought 💭 thanks Leah!
@@jazzykitten22 it’s not controversial, it’s proven to be unsafe. I’m very happy your baby didn’t die.
@@leah6015 okayyy look up the definition of controversial dude. I’m not saying it’s not dangerous or that that number is wrong. I’m saying that people will disagree that bed sharing is not the worse thing if it’s done correctly. Obviously you didn’t read. But thanks for saying that my baby didn’t die lol he’s been strong since the womb :)
@@jazzykitten22 you’re arguing with data. The data talks here, you can have an opinion, but the data abs research says it’s unsafe! Take care!
You can rent !
So that’s good like
$100 something a month
And after 6-7 months how do you get them into normal crib? They won’t sleep then being depending on Snoo😅
It has a mode to ‘ween’ the baby off the snoo ready to transition into a normal crib :) x
The major CON is they act like they for enviroment but they refuse to sell parts like motors that are known to fail, so if out of warranty from used or second baby and stops your out of luck
Ahhhhh please be carful. Bed Sharing is one of the top causes of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death SYndrome). Just sharing because I care :)
bed sharing done safely (important) is just as safe as sleeping in a cot, btw. a baby has just as big a chance of SIDS in a cot
Awesome great review
2023, thank you for this review.
I wish this was around in 2014 when my son was born. He would have loved this. Ugh and he was such an awful sleeper...
Please share on nursing bras. So difficult to find good ones ;(
Kindred bravely has an awesome nursing bra that also doubles as a pumping bra. I rotate 2 because they're like $50 each for a size small
I sized up in my regular thin strap sports bras from Lululemon and they were my fav nursing bras!!
I borrowed it for my 4th and glad I never bought it because he ended up hating it and just wanted to sleep with mom and dad ha!
nice video
5 babies, love a good swaddle. Our twins are the youngest, and they slept the best when together. When twins are crying, just touching their hands together would make them stop crying. Dur to that, they sleep better together the first 2-3 months but if not swaddled tightly, they punched and kicked each other, waking each other up. They only made 6 weeks together though.
Will you do a video on sleeping training in the crib and transitioning please
She does have one or two videos about her sleep training methods
Can you please please please!!!!! Make a video about sleep training and how to? Like where to start and such. I just had my second child and I really have no idea where to start. My first child is almost 2 yo and still sleeps in bed with us which is nice and exhausting. Thank you so much. Lots of love sent your way!! 🧡😘
Raghda Aboud I believe she has a video in one of her playlists where she sat down with her sleep training coach and they answered a bunch of questions. That might be a good place to start. I’m curious to see whether or not she will do a update with her second baby. Good luck!
She's done at least one sleep training vid
The baby looked cute smiling. I don’t think the tips of a toddlers hair moving back and forth would bother them. It isn’t long enough to catch on anything. Bed sharing with a child is not good. With some kids it becomes harder to get them to sleep in their own bed later on. It might become difficult for your husband and you to have a intimate moment later on. It is great to be best parent but you also need to have adult time( talking, watching Netflix....). Especially when you are toilet training them. Your mattress should be the only mattress that is stain free. It will be cost effective in the long run.
sounds a lot of disclaimer...kind of a confusing review...
Thanks for sharing hun ❤❤🔥
Small youtuber here 💗🎥
Your baby’s name is beautiful 💛
Sorry it didn’t work for you, our baby did great on the Snoo.
Hi, Susan. I really hope you won't find my question weird, but you said very firmly that you don't want to have another baby and I'm really interested why is that. No judgement here, I am a woman who doesn't want children at all. I'm just curious, because you fascinate me. All the love and admiration from Romania!
PS: Still, I'm obsessed with your baby related videos :)) and.. any other video really :D
Not a weird question! During my last pregnancy, I realized I was getting old and feeling it. I also just feel way too stressed out trying to juggle mom life and work life. It’s hard with one child, it’s even harder with another. I have a nanny who helps during office hours (8-5pm), but even with that, it’s difficult because I want to spend time with my kids too. Plus, it’s expensive to have children in Los Angeles! I feel very content and complete with my two babies. ❤️
I don't like this at all . It's like enabling lazy parents to be lazy . Relying on props . Why not hire someone to breasts feed and change the kid too
You obviously have never survived on 3 hours broken sleep before for months lol.
Ridiculous, moronic comment. Everyone is doing their best. Absolutely no parent of a newborn is lazy.
