Sleep training in a separate room, under 6 months is not recommended due to the SIDS reduction factors at play. A committed caregiver in the same room for all day and night sleeps reduces the risk of SIDS by 50 percent. [11] These guidelines for baby being in the same room differs from 6 months to 12 months in different countries.
A study that looked at long-term consequences in children older than seven months concluded that there were no beneficial nor negative effects to sleep training, but did not test the cry-it-out method. It tests two other gentler methods, including the camping out method. [8]

[17] Cause for concern include: an elevated temperature, a history of breathing problems or a child who is not appropriately gaining weight. [9]
Developmental regression is when a child who has reached a certain developmental stage begins to lose previously acquired milestones. [1] It differs from global developmental delay in that a child experiencing developmental delay is either not reaching developmental milestones or not progressing to new developmental milestones, while a child experiencing developmental regression will lose ...
Sleep research conducted in the 1990s showed that such waking up during the night may be a natural sleep pattern, rather than a form of insomnia. [2] If interrupted sleep (called "biphasic sleeping" or "bimodal sleep") is perceived as normal and not referred to as "insomnia", less distress is caused and a return to sleep usually occurs after ...
