La pensée unique qui s''impose dans notre société sur le sommeil des bébés veut qu''ils " fassent leurs nuits " au bout de quelques semaines. Si ce n''est pas le cas, on met aussitôt en doute la compétence des parents et de leur médecin. N''est-il pas normal au contraire pour un bébé et un jeune enfant de se réveiller la nuit ? Et que nous apprennent les travaux sur le sommeil partagé lorsque parents et enfant dorment dans une proximité suffisante - la même chambre, voire le même lit - pour permettre à chacun de percevoir les signaux et les messages sensoriels de l''autre ? Les conclusions de ces recherches sont exposées d''abord par Claude Suzanne Didierjean-Jouveau et le Professeur James McKenna. Elles n''ébranleront pas toujours les positions des uns et des autres ; elles apportent cependant un éclairage surprenant sur le bien-fondé de nos habitudes familiales et de nos attitudes éducatives. Un pédiatre néonatologue, le Docteur Jacky Israël, nous éclaire ensuite sur le rôle joué par le sommeil dans le développement du bébé et, plus spécifiquement, dans son individuation psychique et ses capacités de séparation et propose aux parents des solutions pour surmonter les difficultés qu''ils rencontrent. Ainsi, au terme de ce livre, serons-nous plus libres de choisir quel mode de couchage adopter pour souhaiter des nuits heureuses aux bébés comme à leurs parents.
