>Several days ago in one of our newspapers, there was a blurb about a mother >of a newborn in England who nursed her baby on the sofa twice during the >night, and when she woke up in the morning was horrified to see that her >baby had died. I haven't heard of this, and I have done a UK news search to the end of August and nothing has come up, Jennie. That doesn't mean it didn't happen...but my ears are tuned into stories like this and I do tend to hear them. I do know that we have had discussions here on the list about why a sofa is not a safe sleeping place for a newborn. Perhaps someone else in the UK can come up with more details.
