Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is the sudden, unexpected death of a baby 1-12 months of age.  It's also the number 1 cause of death for healthy babies.  Scary right?  It sure is.  But I've got good news because I learned that we could lower the risk of SIDs if we follow methods on Safe Sleep.

When I was a first time mom, I've read about SIDs, but I honestly I have not heard about HALO SleepSack.  I wish I already had at that time because sleeping with my baby got me paranoid every night.  Having a hard time sleeping throughout the night was already a challenge, but thinking about SIDs and fearing it might happen to my tiny baby instantly and without warning, every night at that, was worse.

When I had my second child, my paranoia about SIDs again kicked in and I had extended sleepless nights because of this.  I would imagine different disturbing thoughts about the syndrome and if I didn't have support of my hubby and friends, most likely I'd be a lokaret now.

When Ives Lim-Esteban, the woman behind HALO Philippines, the exclusive distributor of HALO SleepSack, invited me to a presentation about Halo SleepSack, SIDs and Safe Sleep for Filipino babies, I said yes right away.  Attending the event had clarified a lot of questions in my head about Safe Sleep.  I also learned a lot about how HALO SleepSack could actually help in minimizing the risks of SIDs and give us parents a peace of mind too.
