First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether using the Huckleberry sleep app can improve infant sleep and the mental health of mothers. Researchers will track 120 families with babies up to 12 months old. They will measure sleep quality, maternal mood, and bonding. The goal is to understand if digital tools can support families, not to test a new drug or treatment.
