Red Nose Education

How old is your baby?
There may specific risk to baby who is less than 3 mths of age, premature or small for age.

Have you seen Red Nose brochure on Safer Co-sleeping (reducing the risk)?

We do not have any information on using bed rails when co-sleeping.
Bed rails can create a risk of entrapment if there are gaps (they are ill-fitting) or they are padded.eg bumpers/pillow.
