    This study compared the sleep patterns of 18 cosleeping infants aged 3-15 months to solitary sleeping infants. It found that cosleeping infants awoke more frequently but had shorter wake durations. The researchers noted a longitudinal study would be needed to understand the reasons for cosleeping choices and their effects. The results provide clinicians guidance on advising parents about cosleeping impacts on infant sleep patterns. The author believes cosleeping benefits parents and infants based on personal experience with their children sleeping with them until age 8.

    Psychiatry and Human Development Vol 35(2), 2004). A Comparison of the Sleep-Wake

    Patterns of Cosleeping and Solitary-Sleeping Infants

    Retrieved from: http://web.a.ebscohost.com.libproxy.pcc.edu

    Participants

    # of Participants: 18 infants

    Age: infants (3-15mths.); median maternal age 29

    Gender: male and female infants

    Race: Caucasian, Hispanic and Multi race

    SES: approx. 63% were upper-middle class

    Main Conclusion

    This was a study comparing the sleep-wake patterns of cosleeping infants to solitary sleeping

    infants. The study found that while the cosleeping infants awaken more frequently than the

    solitary sleeping infants, however the duration of the wake times were shorter.

    The researchers did indicate that a longitudinal study would be necessary to tease apart reasons

    why a family would choose cosleeping and the effect it would have on sleep patterns.

    Application

    The results of this study is helpful for clinicians when advising parents about cosleeping habits

    with their infants.

    Personally I think cosleeping is beneficial to both parents and infants. All of our children slept

    with us more often than not from infancy through age 8. They eventually wean themselves away

    when they are ready.
