When to Start Sleep Training

According to Dr. Karp, starting on baby's first day, parents can start introducing sleep cues that are the basics of sleep training. He said, "Everyone tells you can sleep train at 3 or 4 months of age — they can't learn how to sleep before that. But how come they can learn bad sleep clues? Why can't they learn the good sleep clues? It's so transparently wrong, yet everyone keeps doing the same thing over and over again!"
