The Co-Sleeping Controversy: What Parents Are Getting Totally Wrong | @cosleepy
Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
Why co-sleeping provokes fear and stigma
Tiffany traces stigma to fear-based stories, data nuance, and medicalization of infant sleep since the 1990s.
Cosleeping is one of the most controversial parenting choices-today’s guest thinks it’s only controversial because parents are uninformed of the benefits and how to safely do it.
Tiffany Belanger, founder of Cosleepy, is one of the most outspoken voices challenging mainstream infant sleep culture. We talk about why babies are wired for closeness, the biological benefits of cosleeping, and exactly how to safely do it.
