The breastfeeding device to prevent baby suffocation includes a main unit and a remote unit. The main unit is mounted on a silicone pad or patch having an adhesive layer for attaching the main unit to one of the mother’s breasts. The main unit includes a microcontroller having a sensor, such as a pressure sensor, connected thereto, either directly on the same printed circuit board or mounted external to the main unit and connected to the microcontroller by a wire or cable. The main unit has a transmitter mounted thereon for sending a signal to the remote unit when the sensor detects too much pressure being applied to the baby’s mouth and nose. The remote unit has a receiver for receiving the signal, and a microcontroller for switching on an audible alarm when such a signal is received.
