• Episode 92: What is 'Cry It Out'?

  We never recommend the 'Cry It Out' (CIO) approach in our sleep clinics - and for good reason. In this episode, Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpack what CIO means, and what alternatives align better with responsive, evidence-based care. We also take a look at the damage that can be done when the term 'Cry It Out' is applied incorrectly and explore why we steer families toward more supportive sleep solutions. ☕️ Love our work?

• Episode 91: Rigid wake windows can worsen sleep

  Rigid, age-based wake windows are splashed across the internet, promising the solution to all your baby’s sleep difficulties. But do they actually work? Mostly, no. 🥱 The majority of age-based schedules aim for more sleep than is typical for your baby’s age. 📉 They also assume that all babies of the same age need the exact same thing – which is a bit like assuming that all babies of the same age are the same height and weight! In this episode, Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpack why following rigid age-based wake windows can do more harm to sleep than good. ☕️ Love our work?
