Does that make sense?

Yes, absolutely she would say she knows sometimes a baby simply needs to be held and comforted. I think though that she argue that sometimes a baby really *needs* sleep.

I can argue this one myself tbh, I'm planning to show her this though thread and thought it would be cool to show her different responses from my own.
