anything to help is always good to know - one of my kids at work just had a SIDS loss in the family :( So sad.

I'm curious though - the article says something about overly warm rooms - does it make a difference if you keep the temps cooler? It's my understanding that a baby's room should be cool already????

yup it does reduces the risk others things that can reduce sis are
like put baby to sleep on back only
make sure crib sheets fits snugly on a firm mattress
breastfeed your baby if possible
use a co-sleeper rather than co-sleeping with ur baby
