When is something a sleep "prop" and when is it a sleep "tool"? When is something helpful to your baby's sleep, and when is it a hindrance?

One of the most common questions we get is what we're talking about when we refer to "sleep props" or "sleep crutches" and specifically why we call certain things sleep crutches (like rocking to sleep and pacifiers) and not others (like white noise and blackout blinds). So, today's episode focuses on just that, sleep props vs. sleep tools. 

In this episode...
- The difference between sleep props and sleep tools
- What is helpful to baby's sleep
- Things that seem helpful but actually hinder baby's sleep
- Examples of each
- What to do when something isn't working for you and your family
