September is Baby Safety Month

A few simple safety habits can make a big difference for babies at home and on the go.

Keep these basics in mind:

Follow the ABCs of Safe Sleep — Alone, Back, Crib
Use a properly installed, rear-facing car seat
Keep medicines, cords, cleaning products, and small objects out of reach
Never leave a baby unattended on an elevated surface
Use age-appropriate toys and check them regularly for loose or broken parts

Baby safety is about building safe habits into everyday routines.

There is no known safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy. Alcohol can pass through the placenta and affect a baby’s development at any stage.

Prenatal alcohol exposure can lead to lifelong physical, behavioral, learning, and developmental challenges known as Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASDs).

The safest choice during pregnancy is to avoid alcohol completely.

If you have questions about alcohol use during pregnancy, talk with your healthcare provider. Support is available.

September is Infant Mortality Awareness Month.

Every baby deserves a healthy start, and every family deserves access to care, support, and resources before, during, and after pregnancy.

This month, we honor the families who have experienced unimaginable loss and raise awareness about the factors that impact infant health—from prenatal care and maternal health to safe sleep practices, community support, and health equity.
Together, we can help create healthier futures for babies and families.
