Follow on Google News | Recommendations Against Mother-Infant Bedsharing Interfere with BreastfeedingIn “Speaking Out on Safe Sleep: Evidence-Based Infant Sleep Recommendations” “The alternatives to feeding an infant in bed, such as on a couch, lounge chair, or rocker are far greater risks for SIDS,” says Ruth Lawrence, MD, Editor-in-Chief of Breastfeeding Medicine and Professor of Pediatrics, University of Rochester School of Medicine. “Bed-sharing increases the risk of SIDS when the infant is bottle fed or the mother is obese or impaired by smoking, alcohol, or illicit drugs. These are correctable risks of SIDS. Breastfeeding is protective, and the editors of Breastfeeding Medicine are pleased that the AAP Task Force on SIDS is strongly supporting breastfeeding.” About the Journal Breastfeeding Medicine, the official journal of the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine (http://www.bfmed.org), is an authoritative, peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal published 10 times per year in print and online.
