It is a tragic fact that some babies die during sleep, as independent sleeping is a risk factor for early weaning, what are the morbidity and mortality risks of shortened duration of breastfeeding relative to the increased(?) risks associated with co=sleeping? Where are the articles about the risks of sleeping in a crib- an infant has a far greater risk of dying in a crib than in bed with their parents- why is this being ignored????
