    I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with me but I have never really worried about SIDS. And Aidan has a crib bumper. And I put at least 2 blankets over him every night. When his nose is really stuffy (like last week), I even prop him up to help him drain it/breath a little easier. I worry more about his health and development than anything.

    Yes it is normal to worry. Ally Cat's Mommy has posted some great advice and now he is starting to turn over he will sleep in the position that is best for him. Trust your instincts and you can't go far wrong

    The monitor is the best idea.

    Welcome to motherhood! If I knew all the worry involved I don't know if I would do it again...seriously...I guess its mother natures way but I get sick of worrying about everything all the time.

    This has went on since "motherhood" and it is normal to worry as long as you don't become obsessed to the point that you don't get any sleep.

    (I am like that about my kitties when they sleep all day too... I tip toe over and make sure they are breathing)

    i cant say i´m experienced at all, but i also worried about that and i constantly placed my hand to feel his breathing.......... and i didnt liked the idea of him sleeping on his back, in case he threw up i didnt wanted his to broncoaspirate so i rather have him sleep face down and facing sideways.......

    but whatever works for you better.........i also had this nightmares where all sort of bad things happened to him, i stil do but less often, and i think its pretty normal to be that way since you dont want anything bad to happen to them and you....like think ahead what could go wrong so you can prevent it......so dont feel weird i´m just like you
