Study: How mother and infantsleep patterns interact during the first two years of life UofIllinois
which can have a negative impact on child and family functioning. Understanding how maternal and child sleep are related, and change, during the early years of life is critical for promoting well-being for the infant, mother, and family.
Emerging research provided evidence about the connections between infant and maternal sleep during the first few years of life. Concurrent synchrony between maternal and infant sleep was found as early as 4 to 10 weeks postpartum, with evidence that maternal sleep duration was driven by infant sleep duration, and feeding patterns, such as higher frequency of feeding and lower feeding efficiency, influence maternal sleep duration.
Furthermore, a large-scale, multicountry study found concurrent associations between maternal and child sleep outcomes during the first 6 years of life, such that mothers reported that their child's sleep patterns significantly affected both sleep duration andWhile previous studies indicated clear concurrent connections between maternal and infant sleep, how associations between mother-infant sleep change over time, especially during early childhood, were not well understood.
Using a longitudinal approach can provide a more nuanced and fine-grained approach to the relationship between maternal and infant sleep duration andunderstanding both the link between mother-infant sleep and whether there are developmental shifts during such periods can help to promote infant and family health such as establishing healthy sleep patterns.
However, very few studies considered maternal and infant sleep duration together with such predictors. Understanding the predictors of the association between maternal and infant sleep can help researchers design interventions to prevent familyBuilding on previous research, this study examined the longitudinal association between maternal and infant sleep over the first 2 years postpartum and the predictors of maternal and infant sleep associations.
