I sent Jim McKenna the LactNet post from earlier today implying that his
works supports NOT co-sleeping, and this is his reply:
>Dear Kathy:

>As pertains the message to LactNet, my paper reports potentially positive
results of
>co-sleeping--and the paper was cited in the original AAP statement--not on
>bedsharing or cosleeping--but on sleep position. In fact, the AAP
>statement on infant sleep position i.e. the importance of laying babies
>supine for sleep, does not even mention bedsharing. My paper was cited in
>it to mention other variables that affect infant sleep position--but the
>statement makes no assessment of the benefits or dangers of those other
>variables.

>Did the person post the message thinking that my paper argues against
>co-sleeping? That is what is implied. That does not make sense, does it?

>I submitted a letter cosigned by Larry Gartner critiquing the Drago and

>take care Kathy!
