you want to lay your baby on its back so it lowers the risk of SIDS. Always remember.  A. B. C. Alone one their back in the crib. No toys no blanket no crib bumpers just the baby. it is a safer way for the baby to sleep now when the baby starts to roll over on its own and it sleep the baby is fine but when you have an incident like that you want to place the baby on its back never on the couch never on a bed in a crib alone on its back. and dress baby in little clothing like put as much clothing on as you wear you don't want to overheat your baby and you don't want your baby to get too cold. what I am Telling You I learned that in that party that was told to me by doctors

She should lay on her tummy it reduces the risks of SID if you lay her on her tummy she could suffocate

Yes, there is a way to lay your baby. Laying your baby on his or her stomach increases the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Babies should sleep on their back, with no pillows or loose blankets inside the sleeping area.

Whatever way she wants, i lay her on her back but then she turns to her side, when she was a newborn she slept mostly on her back or side. I think theres no "Way" you "have" to lay your baby
