TL;DR

The longitudinal study---until they are 3---of a small group of babies has shown that practitionners asked to prescribe sedatives or sleeping pills for babies should consider it as a risk indicator.

Abstract

An epidemiological survey on 1,100 young mothers has enabled the authors to carry out a study on how frequent it is for mothers to give sedatives to their infants under one year of age and on the way it can be linked with demographical, sociological and psychological factors. The longitudinal study---until they are 3---of a small group of babies has shown that practitionners asked to prescribe sedatives or sleeping pills for babies should consider it as a risk indicator.
