How Sleep Training Can Impact Your Baby’s Secure Attachment 🤱

Hear me out: this isn’t about every baby who sleeps well or every crib sleeper. I’m specifically talking about babies who have been sleep-trained using methods like Ferberizing. Babies are biologically wired to seek the comfort and safety of their mothers, especially during sleep. When we condition them to self-soothe by withholding that comfort, we may unintentionally disrupt one of the most sacred bonds-secure attachment.

It’s not just about sleep; it’s about connection. Studies suggest that methods like these can have ripple effects on emotional development and trust. I know this topic can be polarizing, but I believe that honoring our babies’ innate needs and instincts leads to deeper, more connected relationships-and isn’t that what we’re all striving for?
