When we know better, we must do better.

On this post, we specifically invite comments with useful event alternatives that you have planned or experienced, experiences of impact when families have chosen affirming alternatives or not, notes from allies and those most directly impacted.

We invite everyone else to assume the position of listening and learning something new instead of arguing or challenging the need for this perspective. This aim of this space is to ensure that lactation professionals can provide better and more effective care to all families and allies may become more sensitive to a wider variety of family experiences.

Not even if you’re supervising. Why? Because positional asphyxiation and SIDS can occur without any signs. That’s why safe sleep is critical at all times.

What Parents and Caregivers Should Remember
* Do not allow infants to sleep on nursing pillows or other pillow-like products.
* Do not use infant sleep products with inclined seat backs of more than 10 degrees. Parents and caregivers should not use infant car seats, bouncers, and other infant inclined products for sleep, and should follow manufacturer instructions.
* Follow safe sleep advice. Bare is Best: Do not add blankets, pillows, padded bumpers, or other items to the baby’s sleep environment. Back to Sleep: Always place infants to sleep on their backs on a firm, flat surface.
