Navigating sleep deprivation as a working parent poses significant challenges. While sleep training methods like ‘Cry It Out’ have proven effective in improving sleep, they have also sparked controversy. Opponents argue that it sacrifices babies’ well-being for productivity, while proponents emphasize the benefits for parents’ mental and physical health. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to sleep train remains a personal one, with limited long-term evidence on babies’ well-being.
