And here I thought the Swedish authorities actually subscribed to
evidence-based practice. So much for that illusion. :-(
Marit, the Infant Sleep Information Source by Durham University,where Helen
Ball works, is essential for you in formulating a response to this
campaign.
http://www.isisonline.org.uk/
"This website is about normal infant sleep. We use 'normal' to mean 'what
is biologically expected for humans'. Our starting point is that sleep is
a biological need. We present information about what is biologically normal
for human babies. We also discuss how this may vary due to different
cultural behaviours and expectations such as what babies are fed, where
they sleep, and how societies interpret their needs.
This information is for:
- parents who wish to make informed choices about infant sleep and
night-time care,
- health professionals who wish to share evidence-based information with
parents about infant sleep."
It's the best information around, in my strongly biased opinion.

hoping for once that the traditional Norwegian skepticism to anything
Swedish will prevent this recommendation from spreading over the border, in
Kristiansand, Norway (usually I am cursing that skepticism, trying to get
people here to acknowledge the great breastfeeding researchers 'next door')
