      <p> In their research to support the inclusion of this Step, UNICEF<sup><a href="#note1">1</a></sup> found that when mothers and infants were separated, infants breastfed less frequently, lactogenesis II was evident later and clinical jaundice was more common. Weight gain per day was also statistically less. </p>
      <p>Babies cared for in nurseries had more crying episodes (and were therefore more stressed) and were responded to less frequently. <br /></p>
      <p>24-hr rooming in resulted in mothers experiencing the same number of hours total sleep as the separated dyads, infants spent 33% of the time in quiet sleep compared with only 25% in the nursery group and there was no difference in daytime alertness in the two groups.</p>
      <p> This suggests that rooming-in does not greatly alter maternal sleep and it improves infants' sleep. </p>

			Knowledge of what is normal behaviour is reassuring to parents. Discuss normal breastfeeding and sleep patterns with expectant or new parents. When putting a baby down to sleep suggest they stay with the baby until he moves from the rapid eye movement stage from which he is easily roused, into the deep sleep stage where he is more likely to stay asleep regardless of movement and noises around him.

      <p> The natural course of settling seems to proceed over the first 6 months, but even after that age increased waking occurs in up to 42% of children who have already shown the capacity to sleep through the night.<sup><a href="#note2">2</a></sup> Two thirds of babies breastfeed at night, and have their biggest feed at this time consuming 20% of their total daily intake.<sup><a href="#note3">3</a></sup> For these reasons implementing behavioral therapy for infant and toddler night-waking before 18 months of age is ill-advised. </p>

      <p>Where the infant should sleep is a contentious issue. Prior to the 20<sup>th</sup> Century and the application of rules and regulations to childcare in the Western world, infants and mothers slept together, and still do in countries not influenced by Western customs. A recent UK study found that 72% of breastfeeding mothers consistently co-slept during the first 12 weeks of life.<sup><a href="#note5">5</a></sup> Bedsharing and breastfeeding are mutually reinforcing - breastfeeding couples are more likely to bedshare, and bedsharing babies are more likely to breastfeed successfully.<sup><a href="#note4">4</a></sup><br /></p>

      <div>
        <p>
			The results of fascinating research by McKenna &amp; Mosko (1994)<sup><a href="#note7">7</a></sup> suggest that co-sleeping is associated with enhanced infant arousals and striking temporal overlap (synchronicity) in infant and maternal arousals, and that, possibly as a result, co-sleeping mothers and infants spend more time in the same sleep stage or awake condition. This synchronicity assists mothers to cope with broken sleep - the infant isn't rousing them at a time when they are in their quiet sleep phase.
