If you have any concerns about issues raised in this Real Story programme, you can get advice by calling the BBC Action Line. The Action Line number is: 0800 88 88 09
It is open from 7am until midnight every day. Out of hours, or when all advisors are busy, callers will be offered details of other relevant organisations. These are listed below.
The programme looked at research on the connection between cot deaths and babies who are fed cow's milk. Real Story would like to stress that this is a theory and does not mean that most babies being fed cow's milk are in greater danger.
Callers who are concerned about this issue should consult their health visitor or GP.
