Sudden infant deaths attributed to unsafe sleep practices, Health officials say

For a few days this week, commuters driving past the Lowry Avenue Bridge in Minneapolis will see its lights colored blue, light blue and pink in honor of Infant Safe Sleep Week, an initiative to encourage safe sleep practices for infants.

The Nov. 5-11 initiative seeks to lower the rate of sudden infant death syndrome — or SIDS — through educating new parents on the basics of safe sleep practices and pushing hospitals to become safe-sleep certified.
