With a photo of her daughter behind her, Christina Valentin of Philadelphia testifies at Rep. Curry's hearing on SIDS. Velentin's infant daughter, Carmen, died last spring when she fell asleep in her parents' bed and smothered when her father rolled over her in his sleep. Valentin said if she had known the importance of safe sleeping practices for infants, she would have never put the baby to sleep in her bed.

Eileen Carlins, director and support educator of SIDS of Pennsylvania, who lost a child to SIDS, testifies at Rep. Curry's hearing that the number of SIDS deaths in Pennsylvania could be cut if parents understood safe sleeping habits for newborns and infants, which include laying the infant on his or her back in an uncluttered crib with a firm mattress covered by a tightly fitting sheet. Infants should never be put to sleep in parent's or sibling's bed. Eileen Carlins, director and support educator of SIDS of Pennsylvania, who lost a child to SIDS, testifies at Rep.
