Father Rolls Over, Kills Sleeping Baby

Written by dad - 2 Comments

Here’s an extremely sad story… A three week old baby in Deland, Florida recently died in his parents’ bed when his father rolled over on him. Apparently Mom and Dad went to sleep around 12:30 AM and awoke at 5:00 AM to find that their baby wasn’t breathing. Dad then performed CPR until the paramedics arrived and took over. Unfortunately, the baby was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. Wow. I can’t even begin to imagine what they’re going through right now. While we’ve let our babies sleep in bed with us at times, this kind of makes me question the whole ‘sleep-sharing’ thing.

  1. Yep. Though our kids sleep with us off and on now… I was not too happy about it until they were 6 months old. Unless it was just me or just dad.

  2. A very sad story. Something that they probably would have never considered beforehand…
