*1 Week Appoinment*

****well we just got back from her first
appointment. Eveything is great!!!  she weighs 6lbs
13oz now! She was born 6 10 but left the
hospital at 6 5 so she has gained some!!
Lol her jaundice is completely gone!! It
went away quicker than the doc thought it
would. And she said her belly button is
about to fall off already!!  ****
me and the doctor was talking about
.S.I.D.S and she told me she had 2 to die
before xmas and one died on xmas from
.S.I.D.S!! The on on .Xmas...The mother
rolled over on her!! I know the mother.
Shes my friends sister. My friend told me
that they found the baby laying in a pool
of blood. Im guessing the mother didnt
want to tell everyone that she rolled over
on her 5 week!!
I sleep with my daughter on my chest or
right at my side. I wake up at every
single sounds she makes but after hearing
that, that scares me so now she will be
sleeping in her basinet!!
The doc said she has more to pass that way
then when sleeping in a babybed! how scary is
that!!
Sorry had to share that peice of info.

Well it's not sids if the mother rolled
over on the baby.
I try not to think about all the bad
things that *could* happen because chances
are they won't, so why dwell on it. It's
all very sad though.
Edited to add: I do take the proper
precautions to help prevent sids though.

Research has been done to prove that 80%
of babies who died from ".S.I.D.S" had a
genetic disorder that inevitably caused
the death.
My baby slept on her belly for the 1st 5
months of her life. I think padding,
blankets, pillows, etc have a huuuuge part
in .S.I.D.S death involving suffocation.
Shoooot! I forgot to congratulate you on
.Ameliaaaa!!!! I'm sooo glad her
.Jaundice is gone!!! I know how scary
that can be!

Happy to hear everything is going great!
This guy I use to talk to his baby died
on jan 1 it choked on its own vomit. They
put they baby to bed at 930 the night
before and around 10 the next morning they
work up and found her dead. They were up
partying all night when this happened.

They don't recommend co-sleeping if you're
a heavy sleeper. Aaron's heavy but .I'm
super-light, so she sleeps with me and he
sleeps as far away from her as possible
without falling out of bed.
She shouldn't have coslept if rolling onto
her baby didn't wake her up.

I forgot to mention the reason she said
the causes of sids with cosleeping is the
fact that the covers could smother te
baby.
But yea. Im a very light slepper. I
never move or anything when shes in the
bed with me. Joey sleeps on the couch cuz
he rolls over constantly. So me and
.Amelia has the king bed to ourselves!!
that lady was also obese. I know there is
nothing wrong with obese women but if I
was as big as she was, I wuldnt let my
baby sleep with me. I know it doesnt take
much to harm a baby but it would be even
mre scary for me.

Thats good shes gaining weight back and
stuff yay
sids is scary, I co sleep occasionally but
I am a light sleeper even the slightest
like irregular snore and im up. But most
of the time she ends up in the carseat and
sleeps a long time in there. She doesnt
particularly like her back, in the
mornings when hubby is at work and she
wakes up to eat I lay in bed and nurse her
and she sleeps there for a few more hrs
with me but I never have covers on the bed
with a baby in the bed even whenjoseph was
8 mths old and he was in my bed I didnt
use blankets at all. Most of the time I
have to put her on the side of me that
isnt near my husband hes a kinda heavy
sleeper so if she end sup in bed with both
us she isnt near him. I hate that im
sucha light sleeper lol . I hear every
little noise I mean everything.

your doctor sounds a little uneducated
when it comes to sids. Sids is when a
baby stops breathing in their sleep,
nobody knows why but they think it's
because of a brain abnormality.
If a baby dies because the blankets go
over their face that would be death by
smothering or suffocation.
