Sleep Research


The primary reason people seem to visit this blog, judging by the stats, is for a series of posts I did putting together all the research I could find in scientific journals on baby sleep, including the effectiveness of methods for inducing sleep, and the possible side-effects of those methods (with a particular focus on techniques involving leaving a baby to cry).  I make the disclaimer that I am no expert in this area - but I do cite all my sources, which is a lot more than most so-called 'sleep experts' do.  I am also not trying to sell you anything and am not affiliated with anyone or anything that might mean I give the facts a particular slant.  While I followed what might be described as 'attachment parenting' during the first year, from about 13 months I used controlled crying to get my baby to sleep.
