S2E5 - Behavioural Sleep Interventions for Infants 6-12 Months
Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!
Infant sleep problems are common (30–50% of Australian parents) and strongly linked to maternal depression and anxiety. This crucial AMC Clinical episode guides IMGs through the primary care approach for babies aged 6–12 months. We break down the evidence-based options: controlled comforting (graduated extinction) and camping out. Learn to validate distress, explain learned sleep associations, and offer techniques proven to improve sleep and maternal mood. Crucially, master the safety screening: exclude medical red flags (illness, growth issues) and confidently state that follow-up studies show no long-term harm to attachment. Avoid the critical error of minimising parental distress.
