A baby formula sold online and at Costco is being recalled in Canada due to concerns of a toxin that can cause food poisoning.

The CFIA says two batches of Kendamil-brand infant formula that say "with whole milk" on the label may contain cereulide toxin, which can quickly cause nausea and vomiting. Cereulide is not destroyed by heat and can survive temperatures that would usually kill bacteria.

We all told ya.

We all told ya.

For years, co sleeping was warned against as a habit that would prevent independence. Parents were told children would struggle to self soothe or separate later. Long term research following families across 20 years challenges that belief.

Children who co slept early did not grow into dependent adults. Instead, they showed stronger emotional security. Their nervous systems learned early that comfort and connection were reliable. This sense of safety became internal, not something they needed to seek constantly from others.

Neuroscience explains this effect clearly. During sleep, the brain is highly receptive to regulation cues like breathing rhythm, warmth, and presence. Close proximity helps stabilize stress responses. Over time, the brain encodes calm as its default state rather than anxiety.

The surprising trait researchers observed was emotional resilience. These children handled stress, transitions, and independence with more confidence. Feeling secure early did not delay maturity. It supported it. Co sleeping is not required for healthy development, but fear based advice missed how deeply safety shapes the brain. When connection comes first, independence grows naturally instead of being forced.
