How can I co-sleep safely with my baby?
Co-sleeping safely with your baby is really a case... What you want to prevent is smothering your child. I mean, that's the key thing. You also want to prevent your baby from becoming too warm. So again, sufficient space, and making sure that your baby is not too warm, and making sure that there are no objects in the bed that are going to smother your baby, or that your baby is going to be at risk of being smothered. Some ways that you can be safe when you're co-sleeping with your baby is to use some wedging. You can take some poles, as long as they're small. Because ideally you want your baby to lie on their back. That's ideal. You don't want your baby to roll over onto their stomach.
