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.
