To reduce the risk of cot death:

[customlist icon=”ic-blue6″]

• Place your baby on the back to sleep
• Cut smoking in pregnancy – fathers too!
• Do not let anyone smoke in the same room as your baby
• Do not let your baby get too hot
• Keep your baby’s head uncovered – place your baby with feet to the foot of the cot, to prevent wriggling down under the covers
• If your baby is unwell, seek medical advice promptly
