I do wonder how many of those SIDS cases are really just a woman suffering from postpartum depression smothering her newborn because she is no longer receiving the full amount of attention she received when pregnant.

- baumandm 4y agoPostpartum depression is a real thing and very common. I believe it's more of a hormonal response and less about a lack of attention, though
