Children are the most precious thing in the world.

I will be a grandma for the first time soon, this video woke me up.  I thought I was going GREEN. I use organic when I can and will pay attention in other areas after your video. Thank you.

I was very surprised at the end of the video when it ended with co-sleeping. This practice is well known as a safety hazard and SIDS prevention lists this as a major cause of SIDS. Co-sleeping is not safe. That end shot does not belong in a video promoting safety for children.

I didn’t think this was a video with co-sleeping.  It’s just a family holding their baby in bed.  If you’ve ever had a newborn you know that a lot of time is spent in bed cuddling, nursing, changing diapers, etc.

Thanks for your post, Jennifer.  The video isn’t about co-sleeping; it’s about spending time with your baby.  However, safe co-sleeping is one of the most wonderful things you can do.  Mary, please read up on safe co-sleeping.  There’s a great deal of research demonstrating the healthy benefits to children and parents.  Check out Dr. Sears’ book, Nighttime Parenting.

Lovely video.  Made me cry.

Even if this video *did* show a co-sleeping arrangement, it would still make its point. People, please, co-sleeping is the best thing you can do for your baby! Just do it safely - as you would for anything else like feeding, playing, etc.
