Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if providing sleep information and advice to expecting parents can increase sleep duration and decrease sleep problems in infants.

Participants will: * Receive regularly scheduled sleep information and advice emails * Complete weekly surveys for the first 8 weeks after birth * Complete monthly online surveys up to 24 months Researchers will compare both intervention groups to a control group that received no information and advice to see if the information and advice had an impact on the child's sleep.
