Safety

In keeping with the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation that infants sleep in the same room as their parents, cosleeping (a practice that is also known as bed-sharing) has gained popularity among many expecting and new parents. The Academy says that sharing a room with a baby bedside cot is less risky than sleeping in the same bed as parents, as it reduces the risk of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SIDS). While the AAP disapproves of bed sharing however, it does recommend that co-sleeping be done on a separate sleep surface to limit the risk of SIDS. The creation of the bedside crib was important for a number of families.

A bedside cosleeper can be described as a crib-like sleeper that attaches to an adult bed frame. The bedside cosleeper allows parents to monitor their child, and it gives parents the freedom of sleeping in a bed while keeping their child close by.

The mandatory requirements in the standard also address head and neck entrapment hazards by requiring that, following the application and release of 50 lbs. horizontal force at the attachment systems and corners of the bedside sleeper gaps that is greater than 1.0 in. must not be created. ASTM's electronic Reading Room offers read-only versions of the standard.

Convenience

Many parents do not allow cosleeping because they fear suffocation or SIDS or because it's a "Ferberization" which requires children to sleep on their own. Anthropologists have observed for a long time that many mammals, primates and people from non-Western cultures cosleep frequently. This is because babies are soothed by hearing their mother's voice, and can also learn to self-soothe.
