Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum and I'm hoping someone can help me with a question I have. I'm wondering why it's called Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and not suffocation? Is there something more to it than just a baby dying from lack of oxygen? I understand that the cause of death is still uncertain, but is there a reason why it's not called suffocation? I'd really appreciate any help or insights anyone can offer.
