[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have known plenty of sleep deprived babies and toddlers. It impacts everything, just like in adults. They’re moody, quick to get upset, have difficulty training. People that let their kids go for their first most formative years in that state are misguided and doing their kids a disservice. I pity those kids, same as you probably pity mine.[/quote] Only those in daycare settings or home with lots of other kids. If you let a baby and toddler sleep when and how they want, they aren’t sleep deprived. [/quote] +1000 I know a lot of people on these boards have been brainwashed by "sleep consultants" but infant sleep is not complicated and rarely needs intervention, barring medical issues (in which case the intervention that is needed is to treat the medical condition impacting sleep -- you don't actually have to do anything about the sleep itself). Babies become dysfunctional sleepers because we try to force adult sleep expectations on them. If you leave them alone, they just figure it out.[/quote]
