Comforters Vs Props

There’s a big difference between sleep associations, comforters and sleep props. One can be a useful tool that helps direct baby towards sleep the other is something that can be exhausting for a parent or care giver. But which is which? This week’s episode it's the battle of the bedtime buddies!

We’ll look at different sleep associations, how to ensure they are a positive part of your baby’s bedtime routine and how to make Mr Monkey work for you!

We’ll also answer our listener Laura’s question about how she can help get rid of her daughter’s dummy without messing up bedtime!

1 – What is a sleep association? 2 – What is a comforter? 3 – What is a prop? 4 – Are props bad? 5 – Is a dummy a comforter or a prop?
