Your baby can wiggle out of an infant seat, out of the bathtub, off the changing table, or off the bed.
Never leave your baby alone in the house or a car, or any place. If you need to leave your baby alone for a few minutes, put him in a crib or playpen. Your baby can reach and grab. He can grab your coffee cup or stick his hand in your soup. Hot liquids can badly burn an infant. Keep your baby away from hot liquids and
foods. Children can strangle in the cords of window blinds or draperies.
