Did anyone actually read the article on swaddling and SIDS? It only increases the risk of you swaddle your baby and then lay them on their side or stomach OR if your child is old enough to roll over. You obviously don't want to put a tightly wrapped baby that can't move face down into a mattress. Babies swaddled and laid on their backs showed no increase for SIDS.

Exactly "Even so, the findings should encourage parents to make sure babies sleep only on their backs, and if they're going to swaddle, to do so only when infants are too young to move out of that position during the night, said Dr. Danette Swanson Glassy of Mercer Island Pediatrics and the University of Washington."

Nope. Haha. It's still the same information. Always put them on their backs. When they can roll, don't swaddle them.

FYI by the time they can roll they can usually bust out of a swaddle... at least mine always did

@oklahoma.girl55, swaddling just makes some babies sleep better and calms them down when they're upset. They're so used to being in a tight space in the womb so the feeling of being wrapped up makes them feel more secure. But it's not a necessity and not all babies like it.

@junesmommy15, not copy and pasted. I didn't see the other post. Just saw a lot of ladies freaking out over the article and getting scared to swaddle their babies. The article showed pictures of babies swaddled on their back so if you didn't actually read it you would probably think that's what they meant. I was just trying to spread the info to help calm some people down.

@rhia, I know. As if moms don't have enough to stress about. They try to scare them even more.
