Co-sleeping is when an adult shares a sleep surface with their baby. This includes sofa sharing (which is dangerous) and bed sharing (which we're talking about this week). Room sharing is when a baby has their own sleep space in the same room as an adult. #SafeSleep #SleepyBaby

Co-sleeping: Move all adult bedding (duvets, pillows, etc) away from baby so they have a clear, flat space to sleep on and lay baby near the middle of the bed so they can’t roll out or get trapped. Sometimes co-sleeping can be dangerous. More info here: https://t.co/ps9kuS1EwR
