Your baby's sleep

Babies sleep a lot in the early months, even if it doesn’t always feel like you do!

The safest way for your baby to sleep is on their back, in a cot clear of blankets and pillows with a firm, flat mattress in a smoke-free environment. 

Babies are safest sleeping in a room that is not too hot, with a temperature between 16 and 20°C.

It is also recommended that your baby sleeps in the same room as you for the first six months, day and night.

The Lullaby Trust have lots more useful on their website information about Safer Sleep.
