Rebreathing exhaled carbon dioxide trapped near an infant's airway by bedding has been suggested as a possible mechanism for the occurrence of SIDS in at - risk infants and may occur with the use of soft bedding, covering the head during sleep, and use of the prone sleep position.9 - 12 Inadequate ventilation might facilitate pooling of carbon dioxide around a sleeping infant's mouth and nose and might increase the likelihood of rebreathing.13, 14 Increased movement of air in the room of a sleeping infant may potentially decrease the accumulation of carbon dioxide around the infant's nose and mouth and reduce the risk of rebreathing.10 A recent study15 showing a significantly reduced risk of SIDS associated with pacifier use further supports the importance of rebreathing as a risk factor for SIDS.

For instance, it has been suggested that the physical restraint associated with swaddling may prevent infants placed supine from rolling to the prone position.299 One study's results suggested a decrease in SIDS rate with swaddling if the infant was supine, 182 but it was notable that there was an increased risk of SIDS if the infant was swaddled and placed in the prone position.182 Although a recent study found a 31-fold increase in SIDS risk with swaddling, the analysis was not stratified according to sleep position.171 Although it may be more likely that parents will initially place a swaddled infant supine, this protective effect may be offset by the 12-fold increased risk of SIDS if the infant is either placed or rolls to the prone position when swaddled.182, 300 Moreover, there is no evidence that swaddling reduces bed - sharing or use of unsafe sleep surfaces, promotes breastfeeding, or reduces maternal cigarette smoking.

The latter includes homicides, as well as intentional suffocation, estimated at about 5 % of SUID deaths, but also suspected or definite accidental suffocations, because of an overlay by another person, or an asphyxial wedging or strangulation, especially where the infant is not found dead in a crib but having been on a structure not specifically designed with infant sleep safety in mind (recliners, waterbeds, couches, sofas and / or adult beds).9

However, such soft bedding can increase the potential of suffocation and rebreathing.54, 56,57,179, — , 181 Pillows, quilts, comforters, sheepskins, and other soft surfaces are hazardous when placed under the infant62, 147,182, — , 187 or left loose in the infant's sleep area62, 65,184,185,188, — , 191 and can increase SIDS risk up to fivefold independent of sleep position.62, 147 Several reports have also described that in many SIDS cases, the heads of the infants, including some infants who slept supine, were covered by loose bedding.65, 186,187,191 It should be noted that the risk of SIDS increases 21-fold when the infant is placed prone with soft bedding.62 In addition, soft and loose bedding have both been associated with accidental suffocation deaths.149 The CPSC has reported that the majority of sleep - related infant deaths in its database are attributable to suffocation involving pillows, quilts, and extra bedding.192, 193 The AAP recommends that infants sleep on a firm surface without any soft or loose bedding.

There is evidence that this arrangement decreases the risk of SIDS by as much as 50 % 64,66,142,143 and is safer than bed - sharing64, 66,142,143 or solitary sleeping (when the infant is in a separate room).53, 64 In addition, this arrangement is most likely to prevent suffocation, strangulation, and entrapment, which may occur when the infant is sleeping in the adult bed.

Subsequently, by virtue of defining that an adult and infant are unable to safely sleep on the same surface together, such as what occurs during bedsharing, even when all known adverse bedsharing risk factors are absent and safe bedsharing practices involving breastfeeding mothers are followed, an infant that dies while sharing a sleeping surface with his / her mother is labeled a SUID, and not SIDS.26 In this way the infant death statistics increasingly supplement the idea that bedsharing is inherently and always hazardous and lend credence, artificially, to the belief that under no circumstance can a mother, breastfeeding or not, safely care for, or protect her infant if asleep together in a bed.27 The legitimacy of such a sweeping inference is highly problematic, we argue, in light of the fact that when careful and complete examination of death scenes, the results revealed that 99 % of bedsharing deaths could be explained by the presence of at least one and usually multiple independent risk factors for SIDS such as maternal smoking, prone infant sleep, use of alcohol and / or drugs by the bedsharing adults.28 Moreover, this new ideology is especially troubling because it leads to condemnations of bedsharing parents that border on charges of being neglectful and / or abusive.
