Whether at night or during nap time, a baby should always
sleep on their back in a crib, bassinet, or pack & play.
Babies should always be placed to
sleep on their backs on a firm mattress without any pillows, blankets, toys, stuffed animals, or other items.
Experts recommend that
infants sleep on their back with their face up, however as parents will know, they don't always stay in this position.
Doctors recommend that people suffering from chronic back pain should avoid
sleeping on the back as much as possible.
She doesn't
love sleeping on her back, so we didn't get to use the bassinet (which is a shame as this is a very expensive combo).
Your baby might not
like sleeping on their back right away, but the sooner you start putting them in this position, the quicker they will get used to it.
Babies that don't seem to struggle at night need nothing more than
sleeping on their back on a firm mattress with no pillows, blankets, or toys in the crib.
