Follow the ABCs of safe sleep: ALONE--Baby should have their own sleep space. BACK--Put them to sleep on their back. CRIB--in a crib ﻿﻿Do not put toys, pillow, or bumper pads in crib. ﻿﻿Do not use weighted swaddles (blankets), clothing, or other weighted objects near baby. ﻿﻿Place baby on BACK TO SLEEP, but don't forget to have supervised tummy time. ﻿﻿Baby should sleep on a firm, flat, non-inclined surface. Do not use products for sleep that aren't specifically marketed for sleep. ﻿﻿Prevent overheating or over dressing your baby. Layers of clothing should be used for warmth, no blankets or other covering. ﻿﻿Hats are not recommended indoors after the first hours of life. ﻿﻿Sleeping in the same room as your baby, but not the same bed, is recommended for at least the first six months. ﻿﻿Breastfeeding and pacifier use are associated with reduced risk of sleep-related infant deaths. ﻿﻿Home cardiorespiratory monitors to reduce the risk of SIDS are not recommended. ﻿﻿There is no evidence that swaddling decreases SIDS. If you swaddle your baby, stop when the baby starts to roll over. ﻿﻿Sitting devices (car seats, strollers, infant carriers and infant swings) are not recommended for routine sleep, especially for infants younger than 4 months old.
