Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Baby SleepExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Those randomized to this intervention group will receive an interactive online intervention focused on promoting infant sleep. This will include membership in a private Facebook group with support provided in the group, including weekly resources in the form of videos and tip sheets. To supplement this, they will also receive items meant to help with sleep (ex. sleep sack, baby sleep book).
Group II: Baby CareActive Control1 Intervention
The active control condition will parallel the intervention, but will be focused on general baby care and not sleep. Participants will be added to a private Facebook group in which general baby care information will be shared (e.g., bathing, play) and will receive items to help with general baby care (e.g., baby care kit with items such as nail clippers and comb; general baby care book). Topics related to sleep and feeding will not be highlighted in this group.
