Dream Lab ™ By Owlet

FAQs

• Does Dream Lab Really Work?
• It really does! Dream Lab was created in partnership with pediatric sleep experts Jennifer Waldburger and Jill Spivack, who have a combined 40 years experience guiding over 500,000 babies to sleep. Through the personalized sleep education plan, Dream Lab can teach every baby the fundamentals of healthy sleep habits—yes, even yours! If you’re still not sure, Dream Lab is backed by our 15 day money back guarantee, so you can feel confident giving it a shot.
• Does Dream Lab use “Cry-it-out” (CIO) Sleep Methods?
• Dream Lab is not a “cry it out” method, though unfortunately there is no way to teach a baby to sleep without a few tears. With that in mind, Owlet’s methods are designed to minimize tears as much as possible, offering parents 3 options (Visit, Stay, or Touch) that allow for more or less interaction based on what you feel is best for your baby (and you) during the sleep learning process
• Why do I have to wait till 4 months and 14 pounds to help my baby sleep well?
• There is a very important cognitive milestone that happens between 3 and 4 months -- the baby's brain goes through a giant growth spurt. By 4 months (adjusting for any prematurity), we know that babies have come all the way through that milestone, and that is the point at which babies can learn how to self-soothe -- and to remember from one day to the next how they did that. A baby also needs to weigh at least 14 pounds to ensure that he or she will be able to sleep longer stretches at night. You don't want to ask a baby to do something they are not developmentally capable of doing - and under 4 months and 14 pounds, they are often not ready. There are no "bad habits" for the first 4 months, so please feel free to rock, feed, or soothe your baby to sleep if necessary during this time.
• What if my baby is younger than 4 months?
• Dream Lab currently supports babies between 4-12 months old. It is not recommended that babies begin Dream Lab prior to 4 months. However, your registration is tied to your baby’s age, so no matter how old your baby is when you purchase it, you’ll be able to access the program through their 12th month of age.
• What if my baby is older than 12 months?
• Unfortunately, Dream Lab only currently supports babies 4-12 months old. For additional resources beyond 12 months, visit Jen & Jill’s website at www.sleepyplanet.com
• I’m pregnant, but I’m interested in Dream Lab. Should I purchase now or wait until my baby is at least 4 months?
• Dream Lab is based on your child’s age. If you purchase it while pregnant, you can still access the program, and your registration does not expire until your baby is 13 months old. So just hang on to your login until your baby is ready to start!
• Is Dream Lab an app?
• Dream Lab is not currently an app, although it works similar to one. Dream Lab is accessed online through your web browser, and similar to an app, can be accessed from anywhere on your phone or another device.
• Does Dream Lab integrate with the Smart Sock, or do I need a Sock to use DL?
• Dream Lab does not integrate with any other Owlet products and you do not need an Owlet product to use it!
• How long does it take for Dream Lab to work?
• That depends a lot on you! Consistency in following your plan is the number-one key factor for success. Dream Lab offers three proven sleep methods based on your preferred approach that will have you experiencing better sleep somewhere between 3 to 15 days. Most babies will see an improvement in 3 to 5 nights. For naps, the norm is 5 days, but it can occasionally take a bit longer. For children who are used to being held while they sleep, healthy sleep at night and during the day can take 7 to 10 days.
