When can my baby sleep with a blanket?
Many babies who die from SIDS or suffocation are found on their stomach with their faces covered by soft bedding such as blankets and pillows. For this reason, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that you keep blankets out of your baby's crib until he's at least 12 months old. After this age, the statistical likelihood of dying from SIDS plummets. The risk of suffocation also goes down because most 12-month-olds are able to roll over and have the dexterity to move blankets away from their face.
If you do decide to use a blanket, choose a thin one and tuck it firmly around both sides and one end of the crib mattress. Place your baby under the blanket so his feet and lower half are covered, but his upper chest and head are exposed (tuck the blanket under his arms, across his nipples).

The best thing to do is to zip your baby up in a wearable blanket. They come in all sizes and eliminate the risk of suffocation. They are also warm and cozy!

When my son was really small, we used the velcro swaddling blankets. Once he got to be about 3 months old, we switched to sleep sacks. They come in all different sizes and in either cotton or fleece. We use cotton on warmer nights and fleece on cooler nights. I love them because I know that he can't suffocate under them, and he also can't kick them off so I know that he is staying warm and cozy. When my son is in his crib, it's just him in a sleeper and a sleep sack. No blankets, toys, bumpers, et cetera. My thought is "Why take the chance?"

I'm here also because of what just happened to my baby. I've always said that every baby is different, my baby knows how to move things out of his face, blah blah blah. Well, I just found him so tangled up in his blanket, with it over his face, that if he did happen to try to move the blanket, there would have been no end to pull on. My son is so mobile, his dexterity is great, and this happened. I don't know what would've happened if i kept going about my work and didn't realize the time until later. I'm begging you, Please don't use a loose blanket. I don't know what I would have done if my baby didn't wake up. I don't even know if the lack of oxygen will effect him. Don't think it won't happen to you. It has to happen to someone.

They sell awesome halo sleep saks that are very safe. It is like a blanket that fits securely over your child's sleeper. The sizes range from newborn to at least 12 months. I insist on it at daycare and I cannot believe that I am the only mother that does not leave her child with a blanket at his daycare. Every child except mine is give a blanket in the crib. My point - there are many safe alternatives. Why take any unnecessary risks?

For the love of your child...ask a doctor, not a salesperson (or someone who "loves" a particular product. Don't take even the smallest chance with your little ones life.

I was deliberately looking for this post because of what just happened. My daughter woke up at an odd time considering her sleeping patterns. I went in to get her and her blanket which was TUCKED IN and she was actually laying ON TOP OF in an air flow support cushion SWADDLED was wrapped around her head. She could breath and was not even crying but that just goes to show, NO BLANKET is safe in baby's crib under a year old. It is hurtful to imagaine what could have happened to my 4 month old daughter. It is just NOT worth the risk!

In the first comment on this board, the user speaks with a dangerous and unverified authority and gives dangerous advice. The American Pediatric Association recommendation is that there be NOTHING in the crib the the baby - not mesh bumpers, "breathable" cotton blankets, or anything. Nothing but a firm mattress and a tight-fitting sheet. Suggesting otherwise is dangerous, misleading, and doesn't belong on this board. It is tragic that it has so many 'found helpful' tags, and that it is at the top of the list.

My son is such an active sleeper that we don't use a blanket with him, still. He slept in the blanket sleepers during the winter and now sleeps in the footed cotton pajamas that zip. We put socks on his feet under his pjs and he stays nice and warm. My husband and I are both cold natured, anyway. We keep our air on 78 :)

We used sleep sacks but my son never seemed warm enough (hands would still be cold) so we would tuck a blanket under his sleep positioner & only cover the bottom half of his body. Now at 5 months he fights going to sleep unles he has a tiny snugli blanket. I let him snuggle it to sleep & wait next to his crib to remove it after a few minutes.

I don't see my answer so I am going to attempt this again. I always used a blanket for my son cause like most of the posters here say their babies love to snuggle up to a blanket but recently I got a wake up call. My son started screaming and I ran into the room and found the blanket completely around his face I even had a hard time pulling it off. It took like 5 minutes for him to catch his breath- and his face was all flushed. All it takes is one time. Our babies are too precious. I will never put a blanket in there again until he is 1 year old when they say SIDs is significantly reduced and baby is better able to remove blankets. I was lucky!

every parent has to make decisions for themselves but I couldnt let this go without posting. Not only do you have to worry about your child sufficating you also have to worry about your child becoming tangled in the blanket and being strangled. My son is 20 months and does not use a blanket simply because he doesnt like one but I was really surprised to see mothers allowing their 7 month olds to have blankets. Some say they know their child and I understand that but freaky things can happen and your child is not old enough to get herself out of trouble if the blanket gets tangled. Reconsider what youre doing, there are safe alternatives especially for the young ones, they will adjust and learn to sleep without a blanket, its their safety you need to be most concerned about.

I'm sorry but a lot of these posts are making me livid. I don't understand how some people can be so careless and even chance anything happening to their baby. Everywhere you read it talks about SIDS and babies choking on things and how they have done away with bumpers and crib toys and blankets until the child is AT LEAST 12 months. Why the hell would you risk anything happening to your baby? If you think your baby is cold, put on more layers!! I live in a place where it gets very cold and my daughter has done perfectly fine just wearing her pajamas. It is so insane to me that some people would risk it.

My baby is 4 months and never liked to be swaddled, so we got a couple of those sleep sacks and she stays warm and safe. I love the Pamper Sack one it is so soft, cuddly and warm. I personally would not take the risk of using a blanket, I am to paranoid about my baby's safety that I just follow what the experts recommend, because if they recommend something is because they have done research and studies. Stay safe and happy. God Bless!

i use a wearable blanket on my 2 month old, and usually put socks on her hands to keep them warm.

My daughter did really well with a sleep sack, but we did have a scare with a Halo SleepSack Swaddle. I would swaddle it around my daughter's arms, as the product is advertised to do. She was a very active sleeper at a young age, and one night I woke up to find her with the swaddle portion around her face--she had worked it up while sleeping, despite a secure swaddle. At that point we began putting her to bed with a long-sleeved t-shirt and swaddled her UNDER her arms, which worked well!

My stinker is almost 9 mos. She is the most active sleeper in the world! She is all over her crib at night - and she has been this way since she was about 4 mos. We don't use a blanket on her at all. We never used the sleep sacks b/c we worried she would tighten it around herself since she rolls so much. We keep our air on 76, wear long, footed pjs on her, and we also use fleece sheets - she stays toasty, and has been sleeping from 6:45-7:00 am since she was 5 mos. I'm not sure when we'll put the blanket in the crib though....someday I suppose :)

My grandson passed away from SIDS when he was 6 weeks, don't take the chance, get a halo sleep sack. His twin sister is turning 1 and not a day goes by that I don't cry. A baby's life is too precious to take the chance.

DO NOT place a safety pin in the crib. It's an unreliable device and can harm your infant. It's amazing what babies can do that you think they can't. Please just take out the blanket and leave the safety pin out of the crib!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Some of these responses make me so mad!I'm not even sure why I read these. All I can say is you know your baby best.Do what you feel is right. And please don't listen to these judgemental people who tell you you how to raise your children. All babies are different, do what's right for yours.

Omg I'm a new mom and have been letting my baby sleep with a blanket since he was born now 4 1/2 months but I will definately be changing that after reading this forum. There has never been a prob but I do not want to take a chance. I'm going now to make different arrangements since it's almost bedtime. Thank god for other moms. Now I'm just anticipating his daddy saying how crazy I am!!!
