EP 146 \ Should You Try Sleep Training With Your Baby? Is There a Better Option?

Postpartum is hard and so is sleep deprivation….and you get a nice helping of both after you have a baby. Some well-meaning people might recommend you work on sleep training your baby early so that you can get back to getting normal amounts of sleep quicker. But is this a good idea? Does it even work? That's the topic of this episode. Specifically, I address co-sleeping and how that might be the solution to the sleep deprivation problem.
