What is the safest way for my baby to sleep?
The safest way for your baby to sleep is on their back. Babies who sleep on their back are safer and healthier. It is not safe for babies to sleep on their front or side. Babies settle more easily on their back if they have been placed to sleep that way from the very first day. If your baby is less than six months old and you find them asleep on their tummy, gently turn them onto their back. Don't feel you need to keep getting up all night to check on this. After this age, babies can usually roll onto their back themselves so leave them to find their own position. Whatever your baby's age, always place them to sleep on their back.
