For the more than 4 million families delivering a baby this year, the information they receive can make the difference between life and death for their precious baby. First Candle/SIDS Alliance, the nations leading organization dedicated to infant health and survival, shares these  proactive steps that parents and caregivers can take to help protect their baby from SIDS, stillbirth, suffocation and accidental infant deaths.

While following these recommendations faithfully will not prevent all infant deaths, they will provide your baby with the best possible chance to survive and thrive. Please feel free to contact First Candle at 800.221.7437 or www.firstcandle.org with any questions or concerns you may have.
