Episode 42: Cot Settling, Bravely.
Description
Are you worried, perhaps even frightened, to try settling your baby or toddler in their cot? You’re not alone, many parents struggle with this transition because they’re unsure how to manage their own, and their child’s big emotions, and they don’t want to cause any harm.
In this episode, Dr Fallon and Dr Laura talk about how to support your child’s emotional wellbeing by providing intense support and reassurance during this transition. When done properly, supporting your baby or toddler to settle in their cot for sleep, can strengthen the relationship between you and your child, improve sleep quality for the entire family, and it reduces risk for SIDS.
Parent questions are answered, including:
My toddler has started waking up at night, how do I adjust their schedule to help them sleep through the night again?
How can I manage sleep and settling during and after illness?
If my baby can self settle but wakes up for 2 hours in the middle of the night, what does this mean?
