Dr Suzanne Zeedyk conducted a small study in Dundee with 20 infants in pushchairs. Half of the babies were facing away, and the other half were in a buggy with a view of them. The babies were experiencing a slight drop in heart rate more often when they were in their pushchairs with their parents facing them and they fell asleep more easily.
