Pat says,
<< The popular book about the "First Year", which is a sequel to the popular
book on "Expecting" (am I cryptic enough?) warns parents to not use slings
because babies sleep too much in them, robbing them of adequate mental
stimulation. This warning is a few pages away from the insistence that
these same babies' sleep in their cribs for long periods each day because
they need such [isolated] sleep to grow on, along with the goal of sleeping
through the night at some ideal age. >>
There is another popular book out that has to do with "being wise about
babies" (not) that says you shouldn't use a sling because you aren't a
marsupial, and your baby isn't a joey.
And of course, the ideal age to sleep through the night is 8 weeks.
