Thinking About Sharing Your Bed With Your Baby? It doesn’t have to be scary!
On today’s episode of the “Spoil Your Baby” Podcast, Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum is joined for a fantastic conversation about cosleeping with Speaker, Actor, Author, and founder of CoSleepy, Tiffany Belanger.
CoSleeping has been taking place across cultures since the dawn of humanity. Despite persistent fears that arise whenever the concept comes up– cosleeping is absolutely possible and is absolutely safe… but it does require intentional planning and preparation on the part of the parent/s.
As she explains to Dr. Kirshenbaum, Tiffany’s first child simply would not take to the bassinet. Every time she placed him into his “own space”, he would immediately begin crying. CoSleeping was the natural solution to the problem… however there wasn’t nearly enough information available on the topic. Tiffany decided to take matters into her own hands– doing the research and writing the books that were needed in order to fill in the gaps. In this episode, she shares just a brief introduction to CoSleeping, how to do it safely… and how to learn so much more about it so you can implement it for yourself.
Regardless of your struggles as a parent, one thing that is absolutely true: by listening to the “Spoil Your Baby” Podcast, you’re already choosing to improve yourself, to create space, and to grow as a parent.
