Aargh!  The study recently posted about that involved a phone survey that
showed an increase in the rate of co-sleeping was just commented on the
local news here.  The reporter stated that the rate of increase is most
likely due to a rise in breastfeeding, with moms just allowing baby to fall
asleep with them after.  She then repeated the caution that babies should
always be put down to sleep in their cribs on their backs.  I was especially
concerned, because breastfeeding and dying of overlying were mentioned in
the same sentence, almost sounding like the one was causing the other.
Now I'm off to the WGN website to see if I can find a way to complain.
