[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Finally, with our ped's blessing (although she said she couldn't formally advise this because of AAP recs) we started letting him sleep on his stomach much earlier than you're supposed to do. (I forget now, but it might have been at 2 months?) I slept next to his crib and agonized about it but he was infinitely more comfortable. Good luck![/quote] The most dangerous period for SIDS is 2-4 months. The danger starts to wane at 6 months to 12 months. You are supposed to try to have them sleep on their backs as long as possible, although from 6M+ it will get harder and harder. The suggestion is from 6 months-12months to try to put them on their back and roll them back on their back if they roll to the side. After 12 months, the danger of SIDS from sleeping on their side/stomach drops to the point that the warnings stop.[/quote]
