Importance of Responsive Feeding • KellyMom.com

“However, society continues to sell us the myth that babies should start sleeping through the night after the first few weeks, and that getting them to this stage is an achievement. Aside from evidence to the contrary, given that around a third of adults report at least mild insomnia, should we really believe that babies who cannot meet their own needs if they wake should be able to sleep all night? How many adults when they wake have a drink of water?

“Waking at night is also thought to be protective. Babies want to be close to their mother at night and sleeping close to them helps babies maintain their temperature28, heart rate29 and have steadier breathing30. Sleeping too deeply may be a risk factor for SIDS. Babies who have died of SIDS are more likely to have longer periods of uninterrupted sleep and moved about less in their sleep.”

Authentic Care

"Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the trials because of the joy that a child has been born into the world." (John 16:21)
