Guest guest Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Your friends who had infants die of SIDS do you know if they had a used mattress? I don't know if this is a bogus site or not, but it's an interesting hypothesis nontheless. 's OCCblock post got me interested in the search. http://www.criblife2000.com/richardson.htm Crista-Grayslake, IL Mom to -10 mo old-DOCGrad this Friday! brachy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Hi Crista, Not sure about that site, but did want to share that we know someone through my husband's work whose baby died of SIDS while tummy sleeping on his father's chest (who was also sleeping). , mom to Hannah, DOCgrad Cape Cod, Ma > > > Your friends who had infants die of SIDS do you know if they had a > used mattress?

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Hi Crista- I don't know if they had an old mattress. My aunt lost a child to SIDS, that was in the early 60's. My girlfriend's girlfriend- I will have to ask her. I read up on old mattresses and how the chemicals can break down and mold might set in. I think that study is very interesting. Is that what you have been reading too?

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 I just read a study about regular breathing in infants. When breathing becomes too regular, the infant can basically wind down and not start breathing again. This is why it's also called " crib death " -- it rarely happens in the mommy's arms because she is always moving, and the movement stimulates the breathing reflex in the baby. A baby's irregular deep sighs are one way the baby regulates its breathing so it doesn't get too regular (according to the study). A cover over the baby's face, or a heavy arm over the baby's body, can also impair oxygenation just enough to make the baby's breathing slow and not start back up. Research is still working on all the reasons, and sometimes there just seemingly wasn't a reason. is 21 mos and I still check his breathing! I cannot imagine the grief. , 21 mos, DOC Grad next week! > > > > > > > > > Your friends who had infants die of SIDS do you know if they had a > > used mattress?
