    For a 2-month-old baby, provide a **crib, bassinet, or play yard** that is **safe and flat**.* **Firm, flat mattress** with a tight-fitting sheet.* **No pillows, blankets, toys, or bumpers**-the sleep space should be empty.Baby should **always sleep on their back**.* **Keep the bassinet or crib in your room**, but don’t share the bed.* Use a **sleep sack** instead of a blanket to keep the baby warm.* **Do not use a swing, car seat, or inclined sleeper** for long sleep; they are not designed for overnight sleep.

    The 2 month old should sleep in a single-level crib, infant bed, bassinet, or playpen. They should not be put in a swing or car seat to sleep since that can increase the risk of SIDS.
