  3. 95 Infant Sleep Related Deaths in Sacramento County from 2007-2011 Almost all (90 of the 95 deaths) had at least one known infant sleep environmental risk factor:

  4. Safe Beginnings CollaborativeFocus Groups Parent Response Provider Response • What do you know about infant sleep-related deaths? • … they are a completely natural phenomenon. • …believe parents have little ability to prevent these deaths • …agreed Infant sleep-related deaths are a major problem • …heard of infant sleep-related deaths on TV, but not within their families/communities • What do you think are the major risk factors for infant sleep-related deaths? • Co-sleeping • Infant sleeping somewhere other than a crib • Infant sleeping on their tummy

  5. Sacramento County parent and service providers focus group participants overwhelmingly agreed: • An education campaign to raise awareness of the importance of infants (particularly those 6 months of age and younger) sleeping in safe environments was needed for Sacramento County. • With information delivered by: • Birthing Hospitals • Health Care Professionals • Child Care Providers • Family Resource Centers • Community Programs

  6. ABC’s of Infant Safe Sleeping Video

  7. Sacramento County ABC’s of Infant Safe Sleeping A for Alone • Babies should always sleep alone in their own crib or bassinette. • Co-sleeping with other children or even parents can be dangerous – others in bed with your baby can accidentally suffocate them by simply lying too close to their mouth or nose, or by rolling onto them while asleep. • Your baby should not sleep with stuffed animals, pillows or blankets — these soft items could accidentally fall over your baby’s face and suffocate them. • A blanket sleeper or sleep sack is enough to keep your baby comfortable.

  8. Sacramento County – ABC’s of Infant Safe Sleeping B for Back • Babies who sleep on their backs are much less likely to die of infant sleep-related deaths. • According to doctors, “back sleeping” will not increase a baby’s risk of choking. • Many of our own mothers and grandmothers were taught to put a baby on their tummy to sleep — so you’ll need to gently remind them that to prevent infant sleep-related deaths, it’s “back to sleep.”

  9. Sacramento County – ABC’s of Infant Safe Sleeping C for Crib • Cribs and bassinets are the safest places for babies to sleep – as long as you keep them safe! • To make breastfeeding easier keep a crib or bassinet next to your bed and always put your baby back to sleep afterwards. • Cribs should be free of pillows, bumpers, stuffed toys, extra blankets or anything that could accidentally cover your babies face and suffocate them.A blanket sleeper or sleep sack is sufficient. • Make sure that the crib mattress is firm and fits snuggly with no space between the mattress and the side of the crib, where the baby could become trapped. • Unlike firm crib mattresses, today’s adult beds are soft and can cause babies to suffocate.

  10. Infant Sleep-Related Deaths:A Quick and Silent Killer • Infant sleep-related deaths are the leading cause of death for babies one month to one year of age. • Most babies that have an infant sleep-related death appear to be healthy prior to death. • Infant sleep-related deaths occur in all socio-economic, racial and ethnic groups. African American and Native American babies are 2-3 times more likely than Caucasian babies to have an infant sleep-related death. www.firstcandle.org

  17. American Academy of Pediatrics Established Sleep Environment Risk Factors & Recommendations: Recommendation: Infant clothing that is designed to keep infants warm without possible head covering or entrapment (such as loose blankets). Recommendation: No more than one more layer than an adult would wear to be comfortable. Risk Factor: Overheating

  18. American Academy of Pediatrics Infant Safe Sleeping 2011 Recommendations Recommendation: Supervised tummy-time while awake… …beginning at as early of an age as possible, to promote motor development.

  19. American Academy of Pediatrics Infant Safe Sleeping 2011 Recommendations Recommendation: Breastfeeding lowers the risk Put your baby back into his or her own crib to sleep after feeding.

  20. American Academy of Pediatrics Infant Safe Sleeping 2011 Recommendations When breastfeeding, wait 3-4 weeks to introduce the pacifier until the baby has a good latch. If you are breast-feeding consult your lactation consultant and/or your doctor. Recommendation: Consider offering a clean, dry pacifier at nap and bedtime, but do not force it.
