Hi,

My name is Marie and I am a LLL Leader who just took the IBCLC boards last
week.  I have wanted to be an LC ever since I received wonderful help with
my oldest.

Anyway, my mother was a child welfare investigator for many years and had to
investigate several SIDS deaths.  In her case-by-case experience she always
found more than one thing going on, like the mom had just stepped outside
the house to talk to the neighbor for a while, or the parents were drunk or
high, or someone had the baby on a waterbed or couch.

But the thing she blamed the most was crib bumper pads.  She thought the
babies often wiggled their way against them and just couldn't get any fresh
air.  She told me when my oldest was born that if I ever tried using bumper
pads that she would come over with her scissors and cut them off.  After
all, how hard can a newborn whack their heads into the side of a crib?

Great discussion!
