Episode Details
Back to EpisodesYour Baby And Winter Safety ft. Dr. Darria Long of No-Panic Parenting
Description
Winter brings extra layers... and extra worries — especially when you have a baby. In this episode of Sleep Cues, we’re joined by an ER perspective to talk about what actually matters when it comes to winter safety. Dr. Darria is a Harvard and Yale-trained, board-certified ER physician, our go-to for baby and family safety on social media, and mom of 3.
From the most common cold-weather mistakes parents don’t expect, to overheating risks during sleep, to why bulky snowsuits and car seats don’t mix... we’re breaking down what’s fact, what’s myth, and what you can confidently ignore. We also cover special considerations for newborns and preemies, extreme cold, illness, and how to handle well-meaning (but outdated) advice from grandparents.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Is my baby too cold… or too warm?” this episode will leave you informed, reassured, and confident in winter!
