40) Sleep Deprivation and Parenting: A Holistic Approach Without Sleep Training

"Sleep when the baby sleeps" is the world’s most frustrating piece of advice. In this episode of Dam Parenting, we take a warm, honest, and direct look at the grueling reality of sleep deprivation—a challenge that research shows can last until a child is six years old. We’re joined by ⁠Dr. Naomi⁠⁠ and Camille from⁠Little baby go to sleep⁠⁠ to discuss why the mainstream "one-size-fits-all" approach to sleep training doesn't work for everyone.

We explore the long-term impact of broken nights on parental mental health and offer a holistic perspective on infant sleep that respects your unique parenting style. If you’ve felt pressured to follow traditional sleep training methods but they don't sit right with your gut, this conversation is for you. Learn practical tips for managing the exhaustion while protecting the bedtime bond. You aren't "doing it wrong"—you’re just finding your own way to rest.

This conversation is to highlight, like in DAMChats episode 10 The Bedtime Bond how everyone has their own approach and not to feel like you should be doing something you may feel is mainstream if you are not comfortable with it.
