 Rating:  - From a mom of 2 colic babies who are patients of Dr. W.Both of my children we colic! I have a 22 month old and a 6 month old. We lived by this book during those tought times. My kids are also patients of Dr. Weisbluth's. I can not say enough about the book about the support/guidance it gave me in probably the roughest time of our lives.
