The baby is not dead, just in a very precarious condition.

I have to agree with that. I have a few kids, who literally burrow into the
blanket nests head first. I, myself do it in any weather, even in this heat.
Can not sleep otherwise. I see this as another attack on breastfeeding,
because the same "safety expert" does not warn about bottle-feeding the baby
on the bus. Instead she is comparing breastfeeding the baby on the bus with
living the child home alone or forgetting the kid in a locked vehicle.
