How come?

[Little Chicken]

Prem babies are nursed on their tummies purely for the fact it is easier for them to breathe that way. Their chest muscles and their rib cage is not as developed as term babies, so breathing while on their back is actually quite hard work after a while. They are always monitored so SIDS guidelines in this respect does not apply.
