When is your child at a lower of risk for SIDS? -

I have a 6 month old daughter who loves to sleep. From the first night I brought her home from the hospital she slept for six hours straight, now at 6 months she sleeps through the night. My fear is one morning I'm going to wake up and find her dead. I know that sounds wierd, and paranoid, but she means the world to me and I have heard a lot of horror stories about Sudden Infant Death Sydrom (SIDS). She rolls over on her stomach to sleep now too even though I put her on her back like pediatricians say to do. If I try to roll her back she wakes up and starts crying. Is she at a lower risk now that she's 6 mos, or do I still need to be worried that I might wake up and find her dead? Please help!
