I’m a mother to almost 14 children (currently 33w5d). I watched (until I couldn’t any longer and intervened) when one of our babies was back sleeping and chocking and unable to expel the vomit. So of course I picked him up. Also you make the point about amniotic fluid at birth. Sometimes as you know the medical attendant will suction a baby that is unable to expel the fluid on their own 🤷♀️. I know New Zealand (and this may have been proven false since I researched) had a big campaign in the early 2000s to make sure cot mattresses were either new or wrapped in plastic a certain amount of microns thick (sorry after this long and so many pregnancies I forget). SIDS almost completely disappeared overnight. The fire retardants used in mattresses, combined with moisture and heat (like when an infant is sick like after immunisations) create off-gassing. Then if infants are tummy sleeping they inhale those gases. This the New Zealand studies showed led to SIDS. After this campaign I believe they no longer had, “red nose day” there because they found the cause. I can find the source material if you’re interested, or you might already know and be able to disprove the theory 🤷♀️. Love your channel btw.
Hi there 😘, thanks a lot for sharing this with us! We would absolutely LOVE to see the study you are referring to! Any research that reveals interesting new insights is much appreciated! Can you please send it to us?? Thanks so much! 😊 P.S.: 14 children!! We don't even know how you do that! You should found an own channel on youtube! New moms can only learn from you!! ❤️❤️
What do studies say about side lying sleep for babies? My baby sometimes falls asleep breastfeeding on her side - what are the potential harms of letting her stay in that position?
Hi there 😊, initially, when they started recommending that babies should no longer sleep on their tummies, they actually did say that side-lying positions are okay. However, they changed that based on later studies which showed that the potential harms are the same as when they sleep on their tummy. We cannot really say that those later studies are all high quality studies. However, it's the best they have come up with so far. So, at the moment, side-lying positions are not recommended for babies, unless a baby is able to turn by her/himself... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
My son is now 3 months - he will only sleep right next to me and uses my breast as a soother to. Iv tired to put him in his own cot many times and with the pacifier he does not like either.. during the day he won’t nap unless being held or on a sling…. I try to put him down on his own but he has non of it… it means I’m basically with him 24 hrs of the day… What’s your thoughts? :)
Hi there 😊, believe it or not but we know many parents like yourself (mostly moms). Those babies want to be close to their mom 24/7. To be honest with you, we have not found a solution to this "phenomenon". The bottom line here is: it is a phase. And in some babies, that phase lasts 1 week, in other cases, it lasts 12 months. It really depends on the baby. We know parents who have tried all kinds of consultants. According to them, it was a waste of money. Almost all of them say that this phase passed after a while without doing anything in particular. So, as much as we would like to come up with good advice, the bottom line is: your baby loves you and won't accept any other person near you! 😁 We can only wish you that this phase will be over rather sooner than later... 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
My son is 4 years and still with flat head I did listen and i really did put him always on his back but i didn’t know much about flat head syndrome I even didn’t notice it until my stepmother tells me and from that time I can not stop thinking about it and it has been 4 years Later I was trying to do something but it was to late but why didn’t they in hospital tell me about that 😢😢 and what to do to, they are just telling me about back sleeping and he als baby really love to sleep
We are very sorry to hear that! 🙁 The flat head syndrome is (normally) not too difficult to treat when done early enough! This is really something your hospital should have made you aware of.... 🙁
Omg I feel you, what you typed is literally my situation but my baby is currently 3 months tomorrow and my hospital didn’t tell me about flat head syndrome either only to put baby on his back, so day and night whenever he was sleeping i put him in his back, his head is a little flat but thank God I noticed before it’s super bad looking
Thank you both for this informative video..my 2 month old baby sleeps on her back, but she always love to plac her head on the sides. Is there any issue with this?
Hi there 😊, you are most welcome! We are happy if you find our video helpful! Regarding your question: If your baby is able to move her head from one side to the other side, there is normally no reason to worry! Your baby will then alternate between both sides. So, all good! 😊
This video was very informative My baby rolls over in her sleep is there any advice how can I keep her on her back as she is gonna be 6months and still sleeps in her sleeping nest . We can’t sleep one go as we need to monitor her advice on this will be appreciate as I am working mom my husband takes care of her when I go for night shifts .
Hi there 😊, please note that once a baby is able to roll over, then you don't need to worry as much anymore. In that case, they should also be able to get back into a position that allows them to breathe properly - if required. At least, we have never ever come across a case when a baby that was able to roll over had any troubles breathing because of a bad sleeping position.... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hi there 😘, yes, normally, this is still possible! Normally, this should happen all by itself. However, we do recommend talking with a pediatrician about it as well! Thank you! We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hi there 😊, actually, it is generally recommended that young babies sleep on their back, no matter if they sleep with a parent or not. We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hi there 😊, you can start on day 1 after birth, if you like. We posted a video on this topic on our channel. Just search for "tummy time"... We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

my baby is 6 months old and he has flat head in his right side. can I still make my baby's head in shape.
Hi there 😘,
yes, normally, this is still possible!
Normally, this should happen all by itself. However, we do recommend talking with a pediatrician about it as well! Thank you!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
sometimes helmet can help
So the best position is on the side if he is sleeping with parent..and if he is still alone make them sleep on back
Hi there 😊,
actually, it is generally recommended that young babies sleep on their back, no matter if they sleep with a parent or not.
We hope this helps! 😊

My baby choked 5 times he was sleeping on his back.... Bcoz of reflux...
Can you please guide me about my baby's head getting long day by day and she is just 11 days.
Hi there 😘,
what do you mean by "baby's head getting long"?
@@CareAboutLittleOnes Baby's head is growing backwards and it looks like it is getting long backwards.
@@AlizaKim-xn8nb Okay! Have you already talked with your doctor about your observations?
This should really be the first step!
At what month should baby start tummy time?
Hi there 😊,
you can start on day 1 after birth, if you like.
We posted a video on this topic on our channel. Just search for "tummy time"...
