Does Sleep Beget Sleep?
I hear this popular phrase a lot – that sleep begets more sleep. It brings your focus to always encouraging longer naps, longer nighttime sleep, and that lack of sleep is always the reason sleep is tricky. In this episode I’m debunking this myth. Assuming your baby always needs more sleep can actually make sleep worse. I walk you through the idea that babies (and all humans) only need so much sleep in 24 hours, when more sleep is helpful, and when more sleep is not helpful.
