What should parents think about how bad a bad night of sleep is for their infant? Where are the baby? I don't worry too much about babies getting sleep deprived. They can sleep anywhere when they need to. In infancy, there's usually a little bit of crying no matter what kind of day it is.

Today Matt’s discussion with Dr. Craig Canapari continues, as they delve into the science behind sleep training. Together they cover what it is and when it may be an appropriate technique. Dr. Craig Canipari provides an overview of the different methods of sleep training - ranging from simple bedtime routines, to extinction (also known as cry it out) - as well as some of the historical context behind the technique, and also the controversies and alternatives. It is such a personal choice, and different people feel comfortable with different methods. Dr. Canipari also discusses time restricted eating for your infant, and the importance of considering the long-term effects of sleep deprivation on parents.
