Fact Sheets for Families Safe Sleep: Reducing the Risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Since the early 1990s when parents were first advised to put their babies to sleep on their backs, the rate of SIDS has decreased dramatically. The following steps will help keep your baby safe when sleeping. • Always put your baby to sleep on his or her back. • Place your baby on a firm mattress, with a fitted crib sheet, in a crib that meets the Consumer Product Safety Commission safety standards. • Keep the crib free from toys, stuffed animals, pillows, crib bumpers, blankets, positioning devices and extra bedding. • Don’t overdress your baby. If additional warmth is needed, use a one-piece blanket sleeper or sleep sack. Remove bibs and clothes with hoods or ties. • Check on your baby periodically while asleep. • The safest place for your baby to sleep at night is in a crib in the room where you sleep, not in your bed. • Keep the bedroom well ventilated, at a temperature that is comfortable for a lightly clothed adult. • Don’t put your baby to sleep on an adult bed, couch, chair, cushion, pillow, or in a car seat, swing or bouncy chair. • Don’t allow smoking where your baby plays or sleeps. • Breastfeed your baby. • You may offer a pacifier, once breastfeeding is established. • Visit your baby’s doctor for regular check-ups and immunizations. • Make supervised tummy time part of your baby’s daily activity when awake. • Make sure everyone who takes care of your baby follows safe sleep practices.

SIDS Prevention
6 SAND HILL ROAD – SUITE 102 FLEMINGTON, NJ 08822 PHONE 908-782-6700 FAX 908-788-5861 SIDS Prevention SIDS or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, also known as Crib Death, refers to unexplained death during sleep in the first year of life in otherwise healthy babies. The majority of cases of SIDS occur between one and six months of age. Several factors have been identified that can decrease the chances of SIDS. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends the following measures to help reduce your baby’s risk of SIDS. “Back to Sleep” - Infants who sleep on their backs have a 50% reduction in the chance of dying from SIDS. Infants who sleep on their sides have less reduction in SIDS, so only back sleeping is recommended. This applies to naps as well as nighttime. Devices such as sleeping wedges are not recommended, as babies are more likely to flip over when the devices are used. Use a firm sleep surface without padding. A thin sheet between baby and mattress is fine, but do not use fluffy mattress pads or sheepskin. Keep soft objects out of the crib. This includes stuffed animals, blankets, pillows, and quilts. There should be no loose bedding, including blankets. Use a blanket sleeper or tuck the blanket under the sides of the mattress. Soft or loosely attached bumper pads should be removed. Do not smoke. Infants exposed to tobacco smoke have a higher risk of SIDS. Infants should not sleep in the same bed as adults. A close-by but separate sleeping environment supports breastfeeding and avoids the possibility of smothering the baby.

The 'S of Infant Safe Sleeping
The ’s of Infant Safe Sleeping A TRAGEDY WE CAN PREVENT Every other week in Sacramento County, a baby dies while sleeping. These babies are found: • sleeping somewhere other than a crib • sleeping with their parents, grandparents or other caregivers • sleeping with their brother, sister or other children To prevent these tragic deaths, make sure your baby is safe during sleep, both day and night. Learn the ABC’s of safe sleep. It could save your baby’s life. The ABC’s of Infant Safe Sleeping for Alone • Put baby to sleep alone in their own crib or bassinet. • Don’t put baby to bed with other children or adults. They can accidentally suffocate a baby by lying too close to the baby’s mouth or nose, or rolling onto them while asleep. • Keep all soft items away from baby when sleeping in crib or bassinet. Babies should not sleep with stuffed animals, pillows or blankets — soft items could accidentally fall over a baby’s face and suffocate them. • A blanket sleeper or sleep sack will keep a baby comfortable. Don’t use heavy blankets or quilts that may overheat the baby. for Back • Put babies to sleep on their backs. Babies who sleep on their backs are much less likely to die of infant sleep-related deaths. • Teach other mothers, grandmothers and those who care for your baby that “back to sleep” is safest for babies. • “Back to sleep” will not increase a baby’s risk of choking according to doctors. for Crib • Cribs and bassinets are the safest places for babies to sleep.
