A Mom’s Secret Sleep Weapon: Eight Sleep

Eight Sleep Featured
Sleep as a mom is as crucial as it is elusive. As a new mom, postpartum sleep is at the mercy of hormones and your newborn’s shaky sleep habits. You spend months (and maybe years) getting them on a sleep schedule, and along the way, your own sleep gets deprioritized.

Then in perimenopause, those same hormones wreak havoc on your sleep in a completely different way. You’re hot, your partner’s cold…and nobody is sleeping well. The one constant? Wanting to get the best night’s sleep possible as parents—and, unfortunately, functioning on too much caffeine and too little rest.

That’s why we’re thrilled to partner with Eight Sleep, which makes a product called the Pod, a smart mattress cover that uses AI to cool or heat your mattress to the perfect temperature so you get deeper, most restful sleep. It also tracks your sleep, heart rate, and more, without any fussy wearables. Celebrities like Mel Robbins and Emily Didonato as well as athletes like Aaron Judge have all the Pod. But the best endorsement? Other moms who love it.

Read on to learn why the moms across the Local Moms Network are loving The Pod by Eight Sleep:

Eight Sleep Pod

It Customizes Your Side of the Bed (Really!)

Unlike a cooling mattress or a heated blanket, the Pod cools or heats your side of the bed anywhere from 55°F or heats to 110°F—and your partner can choose their best temperature, too. So if you’re having hot flashes and he’s freezing, everyone can adjust accordingly. No more thermostat fights.

It Tracks Your Sleep Sans Wearables

This smart mattress cover does what a wearable ring, watch or chest strap does and more—but it’s all built-in. Sleep patterns, heart rate and breath rate are all tracked while temperate, elevation and even sound are adjusted accordingly. Think of it as the Snoo for adults.

It Uses Next-Level AI

The AI behind the Pod is called Autopilot. Here’s what makes it different: most sleep products are static. You pick a setting and live with it. Autopilot learns how you sleep, night after night, and adjusts temperature, elevation, wake-up time in real time based on your body’s actual signals. Your HRV, your heart rate, your sleep stages. It’s not a preset. It’s a bed that gets smarter every time you sleep in it.. d.

It’s Backed by Science

The Pod incorporates over one billion hours of sleep data. The researchers who developed it understand that women’s sleep needs change with hormones, age and life stage. Their team conducted the most comprehensive studies on women’s sleep to investigate how temperature regulation impacts sleep during menopause. Because if the research doesn’t yet exist, Eight Sleep is committed to doing it themselves to improve sleep for women. Read more about it here!

The Stats Don’t Lie

Eight Sleep users get up to 34% more deep sleep. That’s the difference between waking up and pouring milk into your coffee maker and waking up feeling actually ready to parent. 8out of 10 women felt relief from hot flashes within 10 minutes of turning on Hot Flash mode, which is a complete game changer for perimenopausal and menopausal moms (iykyk!).

The Eight Sleep motto is “You deserve sleep that actually works as hard as you do”. In other words, they get it.
