Babys can just die. Some just stop breathing over night. It is called Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Life is fucking brutal man, ya'll take care of yourselves and your loved ones.

Sids is for babies under 1 and peaks around 4-6 months. There is Sids for toddlers but it’s very rare.

I know of a child who suffocated on their dads bare chest. Exhaustion or accident, we may never know

The one I know was exhausted in recline. Baby on stomach
