@kittymeow1919 It’s all BS honestly. So many moms who sleep train have to do it AGAIN and AGAIN. I can’t imagine. I’ve coslept with my son and nursed him to sleep since he was born. Depending on his growth spurts and teething, he wakes anywhere from 1-4x a night on average. Last night he woke...

@joew1983 Thank you! I don't lump miscoding and variability into the same category as deliberate avoidance of specific coding due to parental feelings, and while Im inclined to agree with you on the racial and socioeconomic coding outcomes, I would definitely like to see data on it. Maternal and...

@stiller SIDS is counted under SUID, that includes SIDS, unexplained, and accidental suffocation/strangulation in bed (bed = adult bed, chair, and sofa).

@stiller You really think doctors and medical examiners are listing deaths as SIDS instead of accidental suffocation because they don’t want to hurt parents feelings? There’s no evidence showing that is the case. By saying this you’re implying the CDCs numbers are incorrect, and that brings the...

@j010203t We told ours on the first visit and she just wanted to confirm that we were getting enough sleep, didn’t even comment on him in our bed

@nserchoftruth He’s breastfed and 6 months old he can absolutely still need to nurse at night. Unless your current setup isn’t working for you at all, don’t listen to your pediatrician. In 3 months everything with his sleep will be different, even if you do nothing.

@joew1983 Ah I hadn't seen this new data, thank you for sharing! I'm definitely not suggesting that breastfeeding while bedsharing is safer than formula feeding and following ABC sleep, just that its important to consider if you're thinking of bedsharing. I agree if you breastfeed it does not...

@xuanang01 Personally I think breastfeeding in conjunction with closely recreating AAP guidelines in your own bed are the most important things to consider if you are thinking of bedsharing. People shit on the safe sleep 7 but really that’s what those guidelines do - it’s AAP without the crib...

@linka81 I’ve been bedsharing with my son since day 1, he’s now 18 months. He’s been exclusively breastfed as well and we’re still breastfeeding. He eats 3 meals a day with 2-3 snacks, and does one nap a day for 1.75 - 2 hours. He usually nurses to sleep, so we do mornings, before his nap, and...

@ibilly I find the timing of the bedsharing increase so interesting because if correlates almost exactly with the Back to Sleep campaign and ABCs. Those guidelines essentially keep babies in a lighter sleep, meaning they aren’t sleeping as well, and neither are parents. Bedsharing deaths have...

@kievonn We’ve been gifted both Picasso tiles and Magnatiles and not only have the Picasso tiles held up but they work with the Magnatiles as well

@nowforever I have it and love it, I’ve been a member since 2017 and use it often. I tend to buy vitamins, kid snacks, and pantry staples from them, it’s often cheaper than my grocery store and they have a great selection. They have super fast refunds if something is damaged during shipping...

@yoshinat0r The truth, our pediatrician is really great. Recommended by our midwife. I think if we had hunted for our own pediatrician it wouldn’t have turned out to be as good of a fit.

@jamessomasette Our AC is set to 70 and I dress my 6 month old in a bamboo or cotton footed pajama every night. If I bring it down to 69 he gets the woolino on top. No blankets. I can’t make it any warmer or my husband and toddler are sweating all night. At 73 with no blankets and cool sheets...

@sarebear1992 Question on this, I’ve heard this stance before and seen these studies, but wonder why the WHO and AAP and every other body we often trust explicitly disagrees that there’s no evidence, and we consistently challenge the available data? Whereas other guidelines by these agencies are...
