We have an issue going on about Jaime being put down to sleep ........ I
myself had always layed my kids on their belly, they did sleep better.
Mari says she heard/read that sudden infant death is linked to this?

Thanks for the link ! So far I have learned that the crib bumpers must
go, and yeah back is better , I never knew there was even more of a risk
if the baby is born of a teenage mom ........ I still can't seem to
grasp why sleeping on the belly or side could stop a baby from breathing
? Think I'll dive deeper into that link.......Thanks again! Bev
