A Doctor Has Put A Warning To Parents Who Let Their Baby Sleep On Their Chest by 2000viewsNg(m): 4:48am On Sep 14, 2017
Dr Sam Hanke has taken up the cause after noticing a trend of famous dads posting images of themselves with their infant children perched soundly asleep on their chest.

Despite being a cute image, Dr Hanke knows only too well how dangerous it can be.
Charlie’s death from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) has spurred Dr Hanke and his wife to launch Charlie’s Kids, a foundation which aims to educate parents on the safest way to let their baby sleep.

The foundation points out that many babies die every year due to sleeping with their parents – usually because the baby falls off the parent’s chest or because the sleeping adult rolls over and suffocates the baby.

Aside from celebrities hoping for a good Instagram picture, many mothers comment that at times the only way to get a baby to sleep is by holding him or her to your chest.

Here is a list of dos and don’ts safe sleeping for babies from Charlie’s Kids:
