Babies spend 16 to 18 hours a day sleeping! So it makes sense to keep them safe while they sleep.
Follow the ABC's for safer sleep for baby
Alone. It is safest for baby to sleep alone in a crib without toys, blankets, pillows or anything soft.
Back. Place baby on his or her back on a firm sleep surface such as a crib or bassinet.
Crib. A crib or bassinet is the safest place for baby to sleep. You should share your room, but not your sleep surface. A baby should never sleep on a couch.
