NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The state's launched a major campaign to get the word out about the safest way to put a baby to bed.
Tennessee has the third-highest rate of infant mortality in the country. So state officials studied every tragic case to find out why so many babies are dying. In many of those cases, the cause could be traced right back to the baby's crib.
The state health department has come up with the "A-B-C's of Safe Sleep" campaign. Experts said babies should always sleep alone, on their backs and in the crib.
Also, doctors recommend keeping blankets, loose sheets, pillows, bumpers and toys out of the crib. And, they say no to letting the baby sleep with you in bed.
Experts also recommend the "sleep sack." It's like a wearable blanket that zips up and keeps the baby warm without the risk of covering their nose and mouth.
