Is Sleep Training 'n Vloekwoord? / Is Sleep Training a Dirty Word?

from 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon · host Daniëlla

Hoe jy geboorte gee… of jy borsvoed of nie… en “sleep training”. Dit is drie van die mees omstrede onderwerpe wat elke nuwe ma moet leer navigeer. Opinies is volop, maar feite is skaars. In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met Melissa Bierman, ’n ervare slaapafrigter van Good Night Baby, oor die uitdagings en realiteite van slaapopleiding vir babas en ouers. Melissa deel praktiese wenke oor ’n gesonde slaapomgewing, roetines en konsekwentheid – en hoe dit kinders én ouers kan help. Ons skram nie weg van die taai temas nie: jy hoor meer oor bed sharing vs. co-sleeping, cry it out, en waarom hierdie onderwerp só ’n tameletjie is. Hierdie gesprek bied ’n gebalanseerde, holistiese blik op slaap en die rol wat dit in gesinswelstand speel. How you give birth… whether you breastfeed or not… and “sleep training.” These are three of the most hotly debated topics every new mom has to navigate. Opinions are everywhere, but facts are harder to find. In this episode, Daniëlla chats with Melissa Bierman, an experienced sleep coach from Good Night Baby, about the challenges and realities of sleep training for babies and parents. Melissa shares practical tips on creating a healthy sleep environment, the role of routines and consistency, and how better sleep supports the whole family. We don’t shy away from the tough conversations: you’ll hear more about bed sharing vs. co-sleeping, the cry-it-out method, and why sleep training stirs up so much debate. This episode offers a balanced, holistic look at sleep and the vital role it plays in family well-being. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
