with your baby? | 31 May 2006 | | |
A Yorkshire Coroner has warned against the dangers of parents sleeping in the same bed as their baby, claiming that smothering could cost as many lives as cot deaths. However, advocates of co-sleeping say parents should be given information about the risks and the benefits, so they can make their own minds up.

Jenni talks to Margot Sunderland author of The Science of Parenting and to Dr Paul Davis, community paediatrician.
