• Answer #2

  If there is a valid medical reason for you to fear SIDS then there is a monitor that you can get and put on your baby. It will sound any time the baby quits breathing. I had a friend that had a baby die of SIDS and they put her next one on the monitor the day he was born.

• Answer #3

  not exactly PREVENT, but the measures you could take would be to check on the infant every 5-15 minutes and to not put heavy blankets or stuffed animals into the crib/playpen. also, no mattress. hope it helps!
