Car seat risk...

Perhaps another reason why parents of newborns/young babies should consider using easidream to soothe their baby, has been highlighted by recent research published in Pediatrics this week.

It suggests that parents who leave their babies in car seats, as a means of settling them off to sleep, are significantly increasing the risk of a possible SIDS incident occurring due to reduced oxygen levels. What really is alarming is that the level of oxygen dropped below average in as little as ONE hour! And what's more, is that the effects of reduced oxygen levels will be worse if your baby has a cold or is generally sick.

Please take heed and DO NOT leave your baby strapped in their car seat after your journey.. always transfer to a cot/crib/moses basket.
