The Baby Gear Mistake Almost Every Parent Makes Ep 153

Your baby didn't ask for a nursery full of gear. She asked for you.

In this episode, Erin breaks down three of the most common baby products on the market — containers, weighted blankets, and white noise machines — and explains exactly why, after nearly 40 years of clinical practice, misusing them concerns her deeply.

You'll learn:

• Why babies need movement, not containment
• The connection between floor time, gross motor development, and speech — and why it's more profound than most parents realize
• What co-regulation actually means and why your presence outperforms every product on the market
• The clinical origins of weighted blankets — and what happened when they crossed from therapy rooms to Amazon
• What the research actually says about white noise and the developing auditory brain

This isn't about guilt. It's about giving you the information the marketing never will.
