Is sleep training all it's cracked up to be?
I have Candace St John, MPH back on the show (listen to her also in episode #55 when we discussed Adverse Childhood Experiences and their effects on parenting) this time wearing her Pediatric Sleep Specialist hat! Candace believes much of the mainstream advice we see surrounding infant & child sleep is limiting, inaccurate and lacking proper evidence.  Too boot, much of what we see and hear about it is steeped in privilege and there is a huge need to understand that everyone doesn’t have access to the same options.
Today we get into:
What biologically normal infant sleep is
Why many sleep training techniques are not suitable and will not work for many babies
And how bedsharing CAN be the best option for some families!
