Can’t Stop Worrying about SIDS
Before my daughters were born I had heard of SIDS and I knew what it stood for, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. I also had a fairly good understanding of how to prevent it. Having said that, it wasn’t something that really concerned me. That is until my twin daughters were born 6 weeks early. Seeing how small and precious they were, hooked up to monitors and alarms, I panicked. The thought of bringing these tiny babies home, where there were no monitors or alarms frightened the life out of me.
As a new mum, I was recently asked by Wriggly Rascals, an online parenting community, to write a guest post in response to a survey about one mums fears about SIDS. You can find the survey here. Emma, is mum to 3 week old Aiden and she is struggling to overcome her extreme fear of SIDS. Ever since Emma brought her son home from the hospital, she has been worried and is loosing sleep as a result.

What advice would you give to Emma and other new parents who are worried about SIDS?
Wriggly Rascals was set up by Shona Motherwell, a frustrated
mum of twins, Mhairi and Archie, to get mums together to share pregnancy, baby
and toddler advice via quick surveys to get the facts about what other mums do.
Our mums pass on loads of great tips to mums who have asked for help. If you
