This Side Up

Wearing babies’ T-shirts that read, “While sleeping: This side up!” children rest in the press conference room of the Children’s Museum in Richmond, Virginia on March 29. The “This Side Up” campaign is a movement to distribute babies’ T-shirts with that slogan on them to prevent sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that babies should be put to sleep not on their stomachs, but on their backs.
