Milia

Most of the deaths in infants occur due to the accidents. The accidents mainly occur at home premises. You can prevent these accidents by following some safety tips.

Infant safety tips:

• See that the crib is firmly fit and has 23/8 inches between the bars and not more than that. The mattress should fit firmly within the crib and it should be firm. The bumpers should be removed when your child stands up.
• The baby’s mattress should be placed away from drafts and windows. Do not place the pillows, stuffed animals and fluffy blankets on the crib. These can cause choking to your baby.
• For infant safety, never leave the plastic bags or small objects near them that can cause choking to your children.
• Smoke free environment should be maintained for your child.
• Never leave your baby alone on the changing tables or beds to prevent falls.
• Your baby should not be exposed to sun light for more time.
• Always make sure that your baby sleep on their back. It is not safe for them to sleep on sides and especially when they start to roll on their stomach, to prevent the SIDS.
