multiples are often born prematurely and with low
birth weight, so they are at increased risk of SIDS.101, 102 Furthermore, there is increased potential for overheating and rebreathing while cobedding, and size discordance might increase the risk of accidental suffocation.176 Most cobedded twins are placed on their sides rather than supine.174 Finally, cobedding of twins and higher - order
multiples in the hospital setting might encourage parents to continue this practice at home.176

birth and low
birth weight, 7 — 9 being born to teenage mothers7 and socioeconomic disadvantage.1, 8 Addressing Aboriginal early life disadvantage is of particular importance
