Safety

Your child's safety is important to Baby Morgan. Only let your baby use a baby blanket with supervision. Additionally, the U.S. Centers For Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) recommends these best practices for safe and healthy sleep practices for your baby:

  • Place your baby on his or her back for all sleep times—naps and at night. Babies who sleep on their backs are much less likely to die of SIDS than babies who sleep on their sides or stomachs.

  • Use a firm, flat (not at an angle or inclined) sleep surface covered only by a fitted sheet.
     
  • Keep your baby’s sleep area (for example, a crib or bassinet) in the same room where you sleep, ideally until your baby is at least 6 months old. Accidental suffocation or strangulation can happen when a baby is sleeping in an adult bed or other unsafe sleep surfaces. Sharing a room with your baby is much safer than bed sharing and may decrease the risk of SIDS by as much as 50%. Also, placing the crib close to your bed so that the baby is within view and reach can also help make it easier to feed, comfort, and monitor your baby.

  • Keep soft bedding such as blankets, pillows, bumper pads, and soft toys out of your baby’s sleep area. Additionally, do not cover your baby’s head or allow your baby to get too hot.
