[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's pretty.  Given that my first baby slept in a dresser drawer, then the playpen from the 50's, then my neighbor's crib from the early 60's---or maybe 50's, I think it was her older daughter's crib---and was completely fine, it should be ok.  BTW, we all had pretty bumpers and blankets for our kids, and they slept on their tummies with their butts up in the air, and only nursed every 3 hours even when they were first born---or had formula, the horrors!---and they were fine.  Oh yeah, I'm old enough to be your mama so guess what, you probably grew up like that.  AND you are alive?  Who knew?  [/quote]

The whole "we did it and we are fine" argument is so incredibly stupid, I am embarassed for anyone who says it. Sure, my parents smoked and I never had a carseat and was put to sleep on my belly and I am fine. But not all babies were fine!  That's the point. Most babies will be ok no matter what you do, but personally I would never forgive myself if my child was in the minority of babies who could have been saved if we followed modern, proven measures to increase safety. I hope if my parents knew then what we know now they would have done the same. [/quote]
