Feedback
1. A firm mattress keeps the baby from sinking into the bedding, thus preventing suffocation.
2. Bendy bumpers can create pockets for the infant's face to become stuck, thus creating a suffocation risk.
3. A pillow is too bulky and can cause an infant to become stuck, thus creating a suffocation risk.
4. Tight-fitting sheets decrease the chance for suffocation because there is little room for the infant's head to get stuck.
A well-ventilated room creates air movement and a good exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
