Choosing a safe sleeper and nursery for baby are two weapons in parents' war against the possibility of SIDS. Please help spread the word to new moms and mothers-to-be that are designing baby's room and gathering items for baby's layette that there are safer alternatives than blankets for keeping a sleeping baby warm at night.
From what we know about SIDS right now it's safe to say that we must wage a prevention campaign against it using multiple methods rather than taking one, single action.

Comments below as well as visitor submissions via the invitations on select pages reflect personal opinions and experiences shared by readers and are not professional or manufacturer guidance.
Unique Baby Gear Ideas shares general safety information based on guidance from U.S. safety agencies and child-safety experts, who advise families not to use drop-side cribs. This guidance reflects current U.S. safety regulations and applies regardless of a cribβs age or condition.
Federal safety standards prohibit the manufacture, sale, and distribution of drop-side cribs. While enforcement focuses on commercial activity, safety agencies strongly advise against using drop-side cribs in any setting due to the risks they pose.
If you own a drop-side crib, safety agencies recommend removing it from use permanently and following local disposal or recycling guidelines so it cannot be reused.
