>>The Sudden Infant Death Research Foundation in Australia is about to launch
its new media campaign and the 3 factors their research symposium (Feb97)
have agreed to focus on are sleeping position, not over-wrapping and smoke
free environment, breastfeeding has been dropped as the 4th factor, according
to a call I got from one of their people checking our journal
deadline dates for the release. How's that sit with lcs ?<<

Not well with me. Hasn't anyone yet figured out that breastfeeding quite
naturally helps two of the three other risk factors? Not to mention the ones
that they don't want to list as major yet.

Second comment: I've just learned that, as of a couple of weeks ago, the
latest word for sleep position is *BACK ONLY*, not even side-lying anymore.
Anyone know what brought that about?
