Can't understand parents who force their babies to sleep in another room and let then cry and cry etc.
We always let our daughter sleep with us. No issues as if you think back, humans always slept together. Be it in caves, mud huts etc. Forcing a child to sleep in a room on its own when it clearly upsets them is plain wrong.

Cot death happened to my brothers baby, in the cot.
But only if placed on their belly, if they can roll then its ok iirc. i.e. if the baby rolls themself. I think its recommended that they are placed are their back tho so if they want to roll over its their choice.That's horrible
They don't really know what causes it, but there are factors which increase the risk. Babies sleeping on their belly for example, is proven to increase the chances.

On the subject of dummys, if you can avoid them then absolutely do so.
Both of mine had dummies, I regret it in both cases!
Everyone says that monitors are a waste of time, and to an extent they kinda are because you'll hear your baby crying unless you live in a big house. On the flip side, if she is just fussing quietly I can run upstairs and stick a dummy in her mouth and she'll go back to sleep. By the time she is crying it's usually too late to get her back to sleep easily. So early detection is a plus imo.
I think that's 2 of the worst things you can as your making a rod for your own back.
If they are just fussing quietly, leave them, they learn to nod off on their own then. if you go running in they are going to expect it every single time. As for dummies, or blankets, big no here. Trying to get them to leave them when they get older is a nightmare. I know of only one person that managed it without too much fuss, and that kid was 3 and she had to give her dummy up so Santa would visit. Every other parent I know has had a nightmare experience getting the weened off dummies.
Yeah I hear you guys. We don't give her a dummy during the day because we want her to start talking more. It's just a night time thing. Also, we don't go into the room unless she actually starts crying, but if you leave it until she gets worked up it tends to be a long night. It's just easier to keep her asleep rather than let her wake herself up crying.
