Я нашла вот статистику американскую.Старовата правда, но тем не менееAccording to a report released in September 1999 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission there were 515 deaths of infants in that year that were attributed to co-sleeping.•290 of the deaths were caused by the baby getting its head caught between the mattress and the headboard, wall, or furniture next to the bed•36 deaths were caused by the infant strangling as its head was caught between railings on the bed or between the mattress and a portable bed railing•68 babies died as their faces pressed against a water bed mattress and they could not breathe through their mouth or nose•394 of the infant deaths were the result of the baby suffocating as they got caught up in blankets and bedding•121 infants dies because a parent accidentally rolled on top of them without realizing it and suffocated the babyНо заметьте, что только последний пункт - из-за родителей, которые на ребёнка "придавили". Опять же, неизвестно, почему именно. По исследованиям, риск там, где мать курит, пьёт, страдает ожирением. Ну или на снотворных. Вполне вероятно, что это и был случай.
