There is no sure way to prevent SIDS, and no exam or test can predict whether a baby is likely to die of SIDS. If you breastfeed, wait until your baby is about a month old before you offer a pacifier. This may help prevent SIDS, though experts don't know why.

There are some factors that may increase the risk of SIDS. What causes it?ĭoctors don't know what causes SIDS, but researchers are studying the possibility that SIDS may be caused by problems with how well the brain controls breathing, heart rate and rhythm, and temperature during the first few months of life. SIDS can happen even when you do everything right. In most cases, a parent or caregiver places the baby down to sleep and returns later to find the baby has died. If this happens to a healthy baby younger than 1 year old, it's called sudden infant death syndrome or SIDS. Sometimes a baby who seems healthy dies during sleep.
