The topic of a new course at Mansfield Senior High School is one that teenagers across the country are having trouble with: How to Get to Sleep. One ninth grader in the class says his method is to scroll through TikTok until he nods off. Another teen says she often falls asleep while on a late-night group chat with friends. Not everyone takes part in class discussions; some students are slumped over their desks napping. Sleep training is no longer just for newborns. Some schools are taking it upon themselves to teach teenagers how to get a good night's sleep. "It might sound odd to say that kids in high school have to learn the skills to sleep," says Mansfield health teacher Tony Davis, who has incorporated a newly released sleep curriculum into a state-required high school health class. "But you'd be shocked how many just don't know how to sleep." Adolescents burning the midnight oil is nothing new; teens are biologically programmed to stay up later as their circadian rhythms shift with puberty. But studies show teenagers are more sleep deprived than ever, and experts believe it could be playing a role in the youth mental health crisis and other problems plaguing schools, including behavioral and attendance issues. "Walk into any high school in America, and you will see kids asleep. Whether it's on a desk, outside on the ground or on a bench, or on a couch the school has allotted for naps—because they are exhausted," says Denise Pope, a senior lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Education. Pope has surveyed high school students for more than a decade and leads parent sessions for schools around California on the importance of teen sleep. "Sleep is directly connected with mental health. There is not going to be anyone who argues with that." The district's high school is piloting the new curriculum, "Sleep to Be a Better You," hoping to improve academic success and reduce chronic absences, when a student misses more than 10% of the school year. During the six-part course, students are asked to keep daily sleep logs for six weeks and rate their mood and energy levels. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

It's been a while, and I know a lot of people have misconceptions about sleep training, so today I want to share what my definition of sleep training is. I believe that there are five components to sleep training. In order to teach your baby how to sleep, these five pieces need to be in place. I am going to talk about what those are today and explain why sleep training is so much more than just “leave your baby in their bed and let them figure it out,” like some may suggest. Sleep training is a process and takes time, consistency and work, but it's oh-so worth it!FREE Wake Windows GuideMini Courses, Video Course and Consultations

This is for those looking for an alternative, partner-led sleep training method. Dr. Morgan and her husband Wes discuss the way that they have gotten all of their babies night weaned and sleeping through the night. Now, it's not a super involved method - certainly not rocket science, but they had so many questions that they decided to make an episode that can be referred back to and shared easily. They discuss how they prepare themselves and the child for this process - inclduing some factors where you may NOT want to start the sleep training just yet, and then they talk about the process itself - how there will be a crappy transitional period, Wes's tips and tricks for what he's actually doing, how Dr. Morgan manages milk supply issues, other stories, and more.This episode is sponsored by:Redmond Salt >> Click here and use code HEALTHYMOTHER to save 15% on your order.Needed >> Click here and use code HEALTHYMOTHER to save 20% off your first order.Resources From This Episode:The Wonder Weeks AppHealthy As A Mother Episode #63: Role Changes and Expectations within Fatherhood with Wes MacDermottHealthy As A Mother Episode #92: Homebirth & Postpartum For Partners with Wes MacDermottStay Connected With Us:Healthy As A Mother: www.healthyasamother.comInstagram: @healthyasamotherpodcastDr. Leah: www.womanhoodwellness.comInstagram: @drleahgordonDr. Morgan: www.milkmedicine.comInstagram: @morganmacdermott

Your toddler might be interrupting naps, have places to be, or want more attention than they've been getting. All of these are very normal, but they don't mean you can't teach your baby how to sleep!

The world of sleep information is full of information that claims to be gentle and responsive but is really just sleep training with gentle marketing. So many of the sleep norms commonly shared are just wishful thinking for sleep training outcomes. How is a parent supposed to know what's what? In this episode I'm sharing some of the red flags for sleep training - sometimes it's very obvious and sometimes it's more subtle. From understanding how sleep training culture influences how we think about sleep even when you know you don't want to sleep train to understanding the sneaky ways it affects information shared about sleep even when it's not a specific sleep training strategy, understanding what influences the sleep information you are interacting with can really help. And when you want to work with a sleep coach, really understanding their approach is essential. While I wouldn't call this a comprehensive episode, I hope it gives you some clues to look for.Connect with KimInstagram: instagram.com/intuitive_parenting_dcFacebook: facebook.com/intuitiveparentingdcLearn more about working with Kim: https://intuitiveparentingdc.com/

Welcome back to The Postpartum Plan podcast! I'm your host, Madison Fugere, a certified postpartum doula and pediatric sleep consultant, here to help you navigate the fourth trimester and beyond. In this episode, we're diving into one of the biggest questions new parents have: “How do I get my baby to sleep longer at night?” But don't worry—we're not talking about sleep training. Instead, we're focusing on sleep shaping, a gentle approach to setting up healthy sleep foundations from day one. If you want to help your baby sleep better while preventing major regressions later, this episode is for you!Tune in to hear:
“You're holding your baby too much.” “Just let them cry it out.” “You'll spoil them if you respond every time they cry.”If you've ever heard these words—or wondered yourself whether nurturing your baby too much could backfire—you're not alone. But the science is clear: responding to and connecting with our babies doesn't spoil them; it builds their brains for lifelong emotional resilience and mental health.In this episode of On Health, I'm joined by neuroscientist, doula, and infant sleep specialist Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum, author of The Nurture Revolution: Grow Your Baby's Brain and Transform Their Mental Health. We're diving into:Why babies need co-regulation, not early independenceThe neuroscience behind sleep training—and why much of it conflicts with infant brain developmentHow small, intentional nurturing acts can buffer against stress and even heal intergenerational traumaAnd because so many parents today are raising children without the village we deserve, we'll also talk about what it means to nurture our babies—and ourselves—sustainably.If you've ever felt torn between instinct and conventional parenting advice, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and science-backed reassurance.

Hallie and Katie have a lot to chat about this week! Hallie is tired AF, revealing Dylan, 2, is having a major sleep regression and is waking up at 4am every morning and refuses to go back to sleep. Meanwhile, Katie and Jason's daughter, Kaia, 1, is having a sleep regression of her own, with a raging case of toddler FOMO that left her crying so hard in her crib she puked! As for their baby girl, Emma, 5 months, she gave mom and dad reason to celebrate, sleeping through the night for the first time. Hallie dishes on how baby led weaning is going with her youngest daughter, Collins, 7 months, and says this time around she has way less anxiety with all new milestones than she did with her firstborn. And speaking of milestones, Hallie reveals that she's scrambling to learn the tricks of potty training after her toddler jumped the gun and took a big poop in the potty. The mom-of-two also gives a sweet shoutout to her hubby, Andrew, who turned 40-years-old on Tuesday. The moms applaud Kylie Kelce after she kept it real about “severe baby blues” and the hardest parts of early motherhood during a recent appearance on the Sunday Sports Club podcast. The 32-year-old wife of NFL star Jason Kelce and mom to three daughters (with baby #4 on the way), is on a mission to normalize the messy, complicated, emotional realities of postpartum life. “The conversations we're not having are the things we're all experiencing—postpartum depression, baby blues, mom guilt, feeling inadequate as a woman. We all go through it, but nobody talks about it. And we should,” she emphasized.Hallie and Katie also weigh in after one mom asked for advice on Reddit regarding her 13-year-old daughter who wanted a $50 shirt. The mamas both agree that they would buy their daughters the shirt, but only under one condition.
