 Rating:  - I love this book...I read a lot...too much probably on baby stuff, anyway. I read several books about helping babies sleep. I appreciated Dr. Weissbluth's so much--he just tells you how sleep works. It's non-judgemental and he's not pushing a parenting-style agenda (most other books I read about sleep clearly did)....just helpful tips whatever your style is. My little guy wasn't napping at all, and just some of the suggestions he had have let to my 6-month old (4 months adjusted age--was a preemie) to 11 hours ... Read More Rating:  - It actually worksThis is a great book to understand why your baby is fussy. This book has some very good recommendations on how to help your baby sleep better and there is more than one way to do it. There are several strategies and you pick and choose which will work for your baby. I follow the 2-hour window rule and it worked like a charm. My son sleeps 12 hours at night and naps 3 times during the day for 1-2 hours. This book has really helped me sleep train my son. Rating: - A Must Have fro New ParentsAs a first time mother, I had no idea what to do about sleep and naps. My Pediatrician told me that the childs naps were really for me (but why was the child so tired and cranky?). After reading this book, we followed it to the letter, and everything the Dr. said was right. We now have 2 very well rested daughters. I give this book to every new mom I know. If they follow it, they thank me. If they don't, they call me and want to know why their kid isn't sleeping. My 5 year old and 3.5 ... Read More Rating: - The Sleep BibleI highly recommend this book even for mothers who will not let their child CIO (cry it out) like myself, because is it chock full of research and information which is goads better than the other alternatives. Furthermore, it had some REALLY handy tips and information as to how important sleep is for your child and charts and figures on exactly how much sleep you should be expecting out of your baby, toddler, and even teenager (also handy are figures on how much sleep most parents are ACTUALLY getting ... Read More Rating: - Every New Mom should have this!!!This book was a God-Send! Our son was only sleeping 10 hours maximum a day. He was fussy and irritable in the morning when he woke up. We did not realize how much sleep a baby needed. He is now sleeping 12 hours at night and taking 2 naps during the day. He is a very happy little boy and eager to go to bed at night. He wakes up happier and the fussiness has gone away. Dr. Weissbluth has excellent examples and stories shared by other parents. A MUST READ FOR ANYONE WITH A NEW LITTLE ONE!! GREAT ... Read More
