A member asked:
My 3 month old doesn't fall asleep on his own unless i am near him or touching him? is this a healthy sleeping habit at this age?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, However...: Helping babies this age transition to sleeping on their own can be challenging. If your baby is feeding well, has normal weight gain, and has had normal doctor check-ups then suggest reading the following link for guidance: http://kidshealth.org/parent/pregnancy_newborn/sleep/sleep13m.html# Also recommend discussion with doctor at the next baby exam which will be at age 4 months.
