Sleep Cues: The Everything Parenting Podcast
Is A Lovey A Sleep Crutch?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you’ve ever been told to “ditch the sleep crutches,” you might have wondered… Wait – does that mean my child can’t have anything comforting at sleep time?
