FLORIDA: Depression following delivery is common among mommies. However, what a latest research has just found out must be mind-boggling!

Savants claimed that mums, who share bed with their bundle of joy, are highly likely to come out with depression. Unbelievable? Believe it!

So as to prove this, academics have been through the sleeping patterns of some 103 mothers.

Their outcomes revealed that mothers, who slept with their kids, have been reported with around 76 percent odds of feeling depressed as compared to those who tend to avoid sharing bed with their child.

Harboring on the subject, the study senior investigator from the Pennsylvania State University, Douglas Teti noted that co-sleeping triggers sleep scarcity among parents. Also, it creates distance amid the parents, which could potentially wreak depression.

Therefore, it is better to make your little one sleep on separate bed in the same room.

It has further been learnt that co-sleeping could trigger Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). A study also demonstrated that a number of infants loss their lives while sleeping with their parents due to suffocation.

Journal Infant and Child Development has run the ramifications.
