I’m really saddened to learn about Amanda Saucedo’s heartbreaking death of her baby, Ben. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) are distressing and traumatic situations for parents and caregivers. Amanda’s tale is a heartbreaking reminder of the need of appropriate newborn sleep habits, as well as the necessity for ongoing education and understanding about the hazards involved with bed-sharing.

Amanda’s efforts to raise awareness and provide knowledge about healthy sleep practices through Benny Bears are admirable. To lower the risk of SIDS and SUID, parents and caregivers must be aware of the recommended newborn sleep safety standards.
