Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Caregivers are advised to put babies to sleep on their backs to reduce the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). Stomach sleeping is associated with a higher risk of SIDS, so it is not recommended. Keeping the bedroom too warm can also increase the risk of SIDS, so it is important to maintain a comfortable temperature. While feeding before bed can help babies sleep, it is not directly related to reducing the risk of SIDS.
