Sleep Like A Baby: What Every Parent Needs To Know About Babies and Sleep

Resource Type

Video - Parent

Description

In the 24/7 world of newborn care (cry, eat, poop, sleep; repeat), the first goal most overwhelmed parents strive toward is getting their baby to sleep through the night. This sensible Parent's Choice Award-winning video evenhandedly explores two opposing philosophies--"sleep training" and "co-sleeping," and informs parents of the pros and cons of each camp. Sleep training primarily refers to the Ferber Method, whereby babies discover and develop the ability to fall asleep (without "crying it out") through self-soothing. Rather than offering a specific step-by-step program, the sensible team of sleep experts and parents interviewed here merely address why some moms and dads choose sleep training, how it works, and when to begin. Likewise, during the segment on co-sleeping (i.e., sleeping with your baby in the same room or bed), a slightly different mix of experts and parents describe the history, prevalence, and taboos regarding this method, and why it works for some families.
