00:00Please don't ever fall asleep with a baby in your hand.
00:04I lost my baby girl, Ellie, due to accidental suffocation during co-sleeping.
00:11She was actually in this chair with her dad, and he was holding her.
00:16You know, as we all do, but he passed out, and her head slipped the highest arm somehow.
00:21I had come down here to get her, and I couldn't see her head.
00:25Trying to figure out what to do with her high chair that she never used in her.
00:30Activity Center, and I have all these diapers for my baby shower.
00:35I think I counted, like, 37 packs.
00:38Nothing prepares a mother for what to do after losing a baby.
00:41Don't even let a knee on your chest. It's not worth it.
00:45It's my baby's so much.
00:47So all I can do is try and save other babies and other moms.
00:53They lost their precious Ellie in June 2023,
00:56and her mom has been speaking about the dangers of co-sleeping since.
01:00What is that? Go get it. Go get it.
01:03Hi, baby. Can you smile? Can you smile?
01:07Can you smile for me?
01:08Each year, thousands of families face heartbreaking losses from unsafe sleep.
01:13To those of you who doze off with your baby in your arms and you're on the couch,
01:18I just want to let you know that instead of removing risk on their life,
01:26you're putting risk on their life.
01:29No parent should have to bury their child.
01:31Wait till they're one years old.
01:33Don't have a baby sleeping in your bed with you.
01:37I promise you, it's not, you'd think it's not going to happen to you,
01:42but if it does, your life blows up.
01:45Losing your child is, there's nothing worse.
01:48In addition to that, you know, to moms and dads, it just goes to everyone.
01:52If you're handing a baby off to someone who's in a room alone,
01:56say to them every time, you know, even if they're wide awake right now,
02:00like, hey, if you find that you're getting tired, let me know.
02:03Or if you're going to go shopping and they're going to be alone with the baby,
02:07hey, if you find that you're getting tired, call me.
02:09So you can just be on the phone with them.
02:12It really, just say it and take it seriously.
02:15Don't doze off.
02:16That's what Brian did.
02:18He dozed off on accident with her while sitting up with her, holding her properly.
02:24He twitched in his sleep and we lost her because her head slipped back.
02:29It is a living nightmare.
02:32After experiencing unimaginable heartbreak,
02:35Ellie's mom and dad were filled with hope and happiness
02:37as they found out they were expecting a baby.
02:40It is kind of for grandpa.
02:42It's a surprise.
02:42We're all ready.
02:44Here we go.
02:45Ready?
02:45Ready?
02:46Three, two, one.
02:48It's so cute.
02:49Oh!
02:54Their hearts are overflowing with love and gratitude
02:57as they eagerly await the arrival of their new little girl.
