Denmark is officially moving away from the cry it out method after a nationwide study revealed it was still being taught in most municipalities. More than 700 psychologists signed a unified statement urging immediate discontinuation of the practice. They emphasized that prolonged crying without comfort elevates cortisol and affects how the infant brain forms emotional and stress regulation pathways. This national push reflects growing scientific awareness of early neural sensitivity.
Researchers highlight that when babies cry alone, their stress signals rise sharply. Without caregiver response, the brain begins wiring for self protection rather than trust. These early patterns influence later attachment styles emotional stability and even learning behavior. Denmark’s decision aligns with decades of neuroscience showing that infants depend on caregiver regulation to build healthy neural circuits.
Despite this, the cry it out approach continues to be recommended in parts of the U.S. where outdated models of infant independence remain common. Scientists argue that babies do not learn self soothing through isolation. Instead they learn through repeated experiences of comfort which stabilize heart rate breathing and emotional processing. This helps form long term resilience.
Denmark’s shift highlights a global conversation about infant well being. The science is clear. Responding to a baby’s distress supports healthier development than leaving them to cry alone.

Nithy was born in upstate New York and grew up in The Colony, TX. Since 2021, she’s lived in Houston, TX and has worked in hospitality, providing for and anticipating the needs of her community through a culinary experience. She is honored and excited to provide the same heart and attention to the families of Houston during their birth journeys to help support their transitions with their best interests in mind.

During her time at the University of Houston, Nithy studied Human Development and Family Studies and has always had an interest and passion to understand the connection between the structures around us and their impact on how families can thrive in that space. With research and experience, she’s seen the many gaps in our society that can lead to individuals and families placing their health and prosperity as a second-tier pursuit.

Nithy believes any task beyond nurturing the parent-child bond is something that a “village” can come together and support their neighbors with, whether through physical recovery, sharing evidence-based care and wisdom, allowing the time to process their journey, and assisting with the everyday tasks that can pull us away from the moment. Through Southern Lotus Birthing, Nithy commits herself to honoring the personal and cultural experiences of Houston families, and supporting them through a well-informed and intentional experience to show that all types of families can thrive in the place we all call “home” with the resources that every family deserves access to.

New Mentee Spotlight: Hi I’m Shakira owner of Planet Birth. My journey started after a spiritual awakening during my own birthing experience. This motivated me to create a space for every path to parenthood to be seen, supported, and celebrated. I provide inclusive care that embraces the full spectrum of reproductive experiences from conception and birth to postpartum, loss, and healing. I also have experience working with mothers that are positive for HIV and syphilis.

Rooted in the belief that birth is a journey through the universe, Planet Birth exists to hold sacred space for every birth, every story, and every soul. Whether you are welcoming new life, honoring a transition, or navigating loss, you deserve to feel grounded, informed, and deeply cared for.

I blend evidence based education with intuitive, spiritual guidance offering doula support, herbal remedies, and ritual care that nourish body, mind, and spirit. I invite families to reconnect with the power, wisdom, and magic that live within them.

Doulas are not a “luxury”’service. In today’s climate, they are an essential service.

The reality: The Education System failed us.

Most people have no clue how the female body works to conceive, grow, birth, AND feed a baby. Male or Female. So some families go into childbearing with little to no knowledge of how the process works. They invite their family members & friends who either have their own birth trauma from the same system or also don’t have a clue about how childbirth works. These families are left to navigate and figure out how to navigate the challenges of pregnancy, birth & postpartum alone. That’s how the depression manifest. Not when you have a Doula.

Some people don’t fully understand the reality of the cascade of interventions at the hospital. The hospital is a business. You are a customer. They provide a service to YOU. They have policies meant to protect THEM. They have a process of how they do things to get a baby here and a lot of the time, that is written before you even conceive the baby. With a Doula, you can make plans for YOUR preferences for YOUR birth. Even when plans change, having someone along side you makes the situation so much better.

Consider a a Doula.
