I will definitely keep you in mind if I venture into formal research in peri-natal psychology. Noticed you website - I'm planning on putting together an article soon/next on babywearing, especially relevant given the recent press releases misinforming parents about "dangers" of sling use. Just got to find the time as X is currently "groovers on manoeuvres"(crawling!) Keep reading! Dr Boo x Hi Kirsty

Loving the blog, definitely going to bookmark this one for sure :-) I finished an accredited degree in psychology just before my daughter was born in December 2008. I found myself quite shocked at the degree of conflicting information there is about childraising in the first year. I definitely veer towards the 'natural' co-sleeping, babywearing, 24 hour breastfeeding view - but a lot of people think I'm mad because for the 1st year I was totally exhausted! If you ever decide to do some formal research on any of the issues you're looking at, and need a willing helper, consider me IN! Kirsty x Hiya Dr Boo!

Thank you for pulling together some of the RESEARCH. We need more articles like this! I always said I'd never sleep with my baby - but then when he was born and I was sooo tired and anaemic it just happened naturally as I didn't have to get out of bed and it felt so right to be able to open my eyes and just see right away that he was ok. Plus don't forget that breastfeeding releases hormones that actually make mummy sleepy - I would interpret this as a sign that it's natural to nap a little while baby feeds. My partner used to find both me and baby asleep with baby still attached! Brilliant! Thank you for pulling together some of the RESEARCH. We need more articles like this!

I love the look of the side car cot, what a great idea, we used to cram the cot right up to the bed and gradually through the night one or the other twin would end up in with us. I had the same qualms as you about co sleeping but all of that went out the window at 3 in the morning and a combination of a instinct and need for sleep stepped in. Babies (10 months) are in their own room now and we are very slowly reclaiming our bed. Good luck with the site! hey! really enjoyed reading, gave me a lot to chew on…
