By the way, how are the babies who are alone crying themselves to sleep
(Ferber or Ezzo) going to remember to roll over on their backs for sleep
until the risk of SIDS is past. Maybe someone will invent a monitor that
will "beep" parents if the baby lies on her stomach. It will have to be a
separate one from the one they turn off so that they can't hear her cries.
