Ferber says co-sleeping okay in some cases
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, look out your window for the flying pigs. Richard Ferber, creator of “Ferberization”, has admitted in the newest edition of his book that his technique is not suitable for all babies and that children can develop healthy sleep habits sleeping in their parents’ bed.
Hurray for the co-sleepers! While I have never cared what Dr. Ferber might think about my co-sleeping, this news has “given permission” to many parents who felt drawn to co-sleeping but were embarassed or shamed to admit it.
So, with this news, I am anxiously awaiting the news that the Ezzos have recommended feeding on demand. I won’t hold my breath.
