Good Morning Lovelies, 

On the weekend a lovely company sent me the perfect sleep companion. For a long time, I had debated whether or not to get a Fitbit to monitor my sleep pattern, as it often changes a lot. However, I have always been a bit weird about wearing jewellery in bed and wasn’t sure if I would get along with it.

So when I was sent the S+ by ResMed, a non-contact sleep monitor, I hoped and prayed that this would be the answer to my prayers. Using Bluetooth signals, the machine connects to your phone and monitors you sleep pattern without anything having to be on or touching you.

At first, I wasn’t sure how this was going to work, but when it arrived it was actually really simple. The machine, which looks a bit like a mini speaker, should be sat above your mattress where it tracks your movement, breathing and sleep range. I will admit that I don’t have a table above my mattress, so it is sat on the storage box I have next to my bed, but there haven't been any problems by doing this.

When you get the product lovelies, you must download the app (free on ITunes) which will be used to track your sleep pattern. Once it is downloaded, you simply switch on your phone's Bluetooth and connect the device and your phone together. The next step is to fill in all of your details and you are all set to go.

Then each night before you go to bed, you just need to connect the machine to your phone again (I did this because I didn’t want my Bluetooth on all day), click the green sleep button and then the tracking starts. When you get up every day, you just need to let your phone know that you have woken up and your sleep pattern and details are all there for you to measure and enjoy.

Something I liked about this was that you could get a really detailed scale, which is accurate and sometimes a little scary aha! I knew last night I didn’t have the best sleep and it seemed to pick up the moments I was awake incredibly well.

The other thing I like is that you can use the product and not have your phone anywhere near you. I am a bit weird and don’t like to have my phone in my room at night, so it sits downstairs. This has caused no problems between the machine and my phone and everything has been simple.

As well, the phone app and machine allow you to take a few moments before or after sleep to clear your mind and think about what has happened over night or what is affecting your sleep. I hadn’t heard of a machine or app that worked together on this and it was a nice addition to the app.

I was really happy with the product and will continue to use it. There has only been a small mishap where the Bluetooth stopped working one night, but I don’t think that was the machines fault as it seemed to still be monitoring my sleep. The design is simple and not bulky or one that takes up to much room which is great. Plus the lightweight feel to it makes it easy to move around the room when not in use.


Ultimately, the machine is a great new addition to my room and I will be using it to help me get the most sleep possible. It is so interesting to see how I sleep now and I can’t wait to track my sleep further in the future to get a better sleep pattern. Especially when I stay up a little too late watching films and binge-watching TV shows.
