If you're a new parent, preventing SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) is likely one of your top concerns. While there is no foolproof way to prevent SIDS, there are several steps you can take to reduce the risk. First and foremost, ensure that your newborn sleeps on their back, as this is the safest sleep position. Keep the crib clear of any loose bedding, pillows, or stuffed animals that could pose a suffocation hazard. Additionally, maintain a smoke-free environment both during pregnancy and after birth, as exposure to smoke increases the risk of SIDS. It's also important to breastfeed your baby if possible, as breastfeeding has been found to provide some protection against SIDS. Lastly, keep your baby's sleeping area in the same room as yours for at least the first six months. By following these guidelines, you can help create a safe sleep environment for your newborn and reduce the risk of SIDS.
