No other generation of women were told to put tiny babies on their backs away from them otherwise they will die
I'm terrified of co sleeping but she will not sleep in her cot. I can't stay awake 24 hours a day
The whole thing is fucking awful

She's 4 weeks old and I've tried dummy, swaddle, white noise, warming the surface, putting a t shirt down. Rocking, stroking patting. Nothing works. As soon as she realizes that she is put down she screams

Morning, everyone.

Obviously SIDS is a very emotive topic, particularly for anyone who's been affected by baby loss. We thought it might be helpful to put some information here from Tommy's that might answer some questions on the subject.

On more generic sleep advice, we also have a page on newborn sleep here.

We hope those might be of use. Flowers
