Pacifiers recommended to reduce SIDS risk: AAP
11th Oct 2005, 06:07 GMT
From the same American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines Jen Creer reported earlier today comes the news that pacifiers may reduce the risk of SIDS. The revised SIDS prevention guidelines now discourage cosleeping and encourage the use of a pacifier at nap and bedtimes in the first year. SIDS activists are pleased with the new guidelines while proponents of breastfeeding and co sleeping bristle. They worry the AAP’s recommendations will cause breastfeeding problems and hinder mother-child bonding. I wish we could conclusively find the actual thing which causes Sudden Infant Death Syndrome because all these rules and research findings are awfully confusing to already tense new mothers.
