Putting an Owlet sock on a left foot can be intimidating for first-time parents. But with a few simple steps, you’ll have your little one’s foot outfitted in no time! I’m going to walk you through the process of getting the Owlet sock properly fitted onto the left foot, so you can feel confident that your baby is safe and secure. Let’s get started!
Gather the Necessary Materials
Gather the materials you’ll need for the sock, and take a moment to appreciate the care you’re providing your child. The Owlet Baby Monitor is an innovative device that tracks your baby’s heart rate and oxygen levels while they sleep, and sends notifications and alerts directly to your phone. It also includes a special sock that fits comfortably onto your baby’s left foot to get accurate readings of their vital signs. You will also need two AAA batteries to power up the device before use.
Make sure all parts of the Owlet Monitor are working properly before placing it onto your little one’s feet. Double check that all lights are illuminated and that all readings are within normal range according to product instructions. Once everything is ready, place the sock onto your baby’s left foot with enough room for comfort but still snug enough so that it won’t slip off in the middle of the night. Securely fasten any Velcro straps provided on top of or below the ankle if necessary.
Once securely fitted, turn on the Owlet monitor and make sure you receive confirmation from both devices (phone/monitor) that they have established connection with each other through Bluetooth technology. Test out its features by simulating a sound or movement disturbance with an adult hand or toy; this will allow you to practice using its alert system as well as verifying battery life since some of these devices can last up to 18 hours when fully charged.
Prepare the Foot
Before putting the Owlet sock on, it’s important to prepare the foot by making sure it is clean and dry – around 15 million people in the US alone have diabetes, so special care must be taken to maintain foot health. It is recommended that parents take their time when placing the fabric sock on their babies. The base of the Owlet smart sock should fit snugly at the ankle, with a notch for extra comfort and security. Parents can keep track of their baby’s oxygen levels, heart rate and sleep patterns in real-time using this revolutionary technology while having peace of mind that if something happens during naptime, they will be alerted right away.
The battery life for the Owlet smart sock lasts up to 18 hours per charge, so no need to worry about recharging every month. Using light signals and app notifications, parents can get regular updates on their baby’s health at any given time from anywhere – even if they are not home! Plus, with its impressive accuracy as a medical device (90% accurate), you can trust that you have found the perfect device for your little one!
Socks come in different sizes depending on how old your baby is – always make sure you check the size guide before purchasing or using a regular sock instead of an Owlet smart sock. A proper fit ensures that oxygen levels and heart rate are accurately monitored throughout their sleep cycles which also helps with tracking long-term trends in your child’s development over time. With its convenient features and reliable performance, an Owlet smart sock provides parents with both safety and peace of mind!
Put the Sock on the Foot
Once you’ve made sure your baby’s foot is clean and dry, it’s time to put on their Owlet sock! The Owlet Smart Sock is a version of the classic baby sock designed with ranges and monitors for babies. It uses gentle motion to monitor your baby’s deep sleep in real time through its base station. This allows parents to stay connected with their little one when they can’t be with them all the time.
To put on the Owlet sock, carefully slide it onto your baby’s left foot first. Make sure that the top of the sock is not folded over because this will prevent accurate readings from being recorded by the smart monitor. Fit it snugly but gently around your little one’s ankle so that there is no risk of slipping off during movement.
Once it has been securely fitted, you can move onto charging up your base station before use. Make sure to follow all safety warnings provided in order to avoid any potential risks associated with using this product.
Secure the Sock
Gently tuck the sock around your baby’s ankle, making sure it won’t come loose. This is a critical step in getting accurate readings from the Owlet Sock. Customers often want to rush this step and get their baby comfortable as quickly as possible, but taking your time will ensure that you have reliable vital signs readings. Here are some tips for securing the sock:
- Make sure there’s plenty of room between the sock and any footie pajamas or swaddles;
- Pull gently on the fabric to make sure it isn’t too tight;
- Avoid dusty rose socks when putting on a left foot;
- Check all connections and cords are secure.
Once all these steps have been completed, read through the warning letter included with your device to understand any potential safety code questions you may have. If everything looks correct, then you can rest easy knowing that your little one has an extra set of eyes watching their vitals while they sleep peacefully in bed.
Check the Fit
Ensuring the sock is a comfortable fit is key to obtaining accurate readings. It should be snug enough to remain in place throughout the night, but not so tight as to cause discomfort or restrict movement. If you receive yellow notifications or false alerts, this can lead to further anxiety and make it worse. Make sure feet are clean and dry before putting on the sock and check for proper fit regularly.

When using an Owlet Smart Sock monitor, accuracy of readings is highly dependent upon correct placement of the sock on your infant’s foot. The built-in sock sensor should be placed directly over the baby’s toes and secured firmly with no excess fabric near their heel or ankle region as this may lead to inaccurate readings. To get optimal results, ensure that there is a snug fit around your baby’s ankle without being too tight which could cause discomfort.
It’s important to check for proper fit at least once every few weeks as babies grow quickly during their first year which can impact how tightly they need their socks secured when using an Owlet monitor for real-time tracking of heart rate and oxygen levels while sleeping. Doing so will ensure you have reliable data each time you use it and give peace of mind
Troubleshooting Tips
If you’re having trouble with your Owlet Smart Sock, try troubleshooting tips to get it running right. First and foremost, make sure the sock is correctly secured on your baby’s foot. The sock should fit snugly but not too tight so as to be uncomfortable. Check that the fabric tabs are fully secured against the foot, and ensure there is no space between them and your baby’s skin. If the sock feels loose or too tight, adjust it accordingly.
The second step in troubleshooting is to check if the base station lights are lighting up when a connection is established with the sock. When a connection has been made, two of the three lights on the front of the base station will light up green; if only one of these lights is lit or none at all, this could indicate an issue with your Wi-Fi connection or an issue with placement of either device (sock or base station). Move both devices closer together until both green lights flash simultaneously – this indicates a successful connection.
Finally, check for any signs of damage on either device – look for rips and tears in fabric parts of your Owlet Smart Sock as well as any discoloration or malfunctioning buttons on its accompanying base station. If you find any sign of damage on either device contact customer service for help!
