Safe Sleep for Your Baby
|
Each year in New York State, babies die from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and accidents during sleep. Take care of your baby by following these simple steps:
* Place your baby on his or her back to sleep, for naps and at night.
* Use a safety-approved crib with a firm mattress covered by a fitted sheet.
* Make sure blankets do not cover your baby's head. Use sleep clothing, such as a one-piece sleeper, instead of a blanket.
* Remove pillows, quilts, sheepskins, bumpers, stuffed toys, and loose bedding from your baby's sleep area.
* Your baby is safest sleeping in a crib or bassinet near your bed. Your baby should not sleep in a bed or on a couch or armchair with adults or other children.
* Don't let your baby get too hot from wearing too many clothes or covers.
* Make sure no one smokes in your home or around your baby.
* Try using a pacifier when placing your infant to sleep but don't force the baby to take it. When breastfeeding, wait one month or until your baby has learned to breastfeed before trying a pacifier. Never prop a bottle.
* Don't forget Tummy Time when your baby is awake and is being watched.
* Tell everyone who cares for your baby about these important safety tips!
