Product Description
DESCRIPTION: America's favorite pediatric experts turn their attention to the hottest topic in parenting--solving babies' sleep problems--in a definitive book that offers immediate results. For every parent who's ever been deprived of sleep by a restless infant or toddler, now there's hope. This much-needed addition to the Sears Parenting Library is the comprehensive, reassuring, solution-filled sleep resource that virtually every American family will want to own. Nighttime separation anxiety, new breastfeeding habits, and an increase in adult sleep problems have made babies' sleep habits a growing concern in recent years. The Searses offer solutions. Instead of espousing the kind of "one-method-fits-all" approach advocated in other parenting books, the Searses teach parents how to match the nighttime temperament of their baby to their own lifestyle. The authors draw on important new infant sleep research from the Mother-Baby Sleep Laboratory at the University of Notre Dame, as well as on their own personal experience as parents of children with a wide range of sleep habits. They also offer a detailed critique of the myriad new devices and ballyhooed techniques that promise to deliver safer and better infant sleep. THE BABY SLEEP BOOK provides parents with the practical tools they need to help the entire family sleep better.

Great resource!  
This book provided a great review of how babies sleep and dispelled a lot of myths that I hear from family and friends. I learned and continue to apply what I've read into my life with my baby. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to do the best for their baby.

It helped me  
I have a 22 month old that still does not sleep through the night, but we get a restful night sleep... and this book helped us a lot, it gave us tips, on how to improve our sleep time. And I know that I wont ever will sleep same as I did before I was a mom, and I never expected to do it. I was only able to EBF her for a year, but we co-sleep, and find this sleep arrangement to be the best of all. My husband can't be with her during the day, but they bond at night, during their sleep. They do grow up fast, so I'm all for enjoying every single minute I have with her... I know that eventually she is going to ask to sleep on her own bed, but we are not looking forward to that day.
Many people ask about sex life while co-sleeping, and I can only say that ours is more creative and fun, we just don't stick sex to night time on the bed anymore. Life can't be better!!!

Great book

Love it!  
I didn't know much about AP before reading this and always thought AP stuff was some weird, hard-core parenting lifestyle. After reading, I realized it's a super mellow, natural, effective approach (not set of rules at all) to raising your babies. I was pretty much already doing AP and didn't know it.
Especially if you have had trouble with any CIO training, read this book and feel better!
PLUS, pages 210-213 include recaps on scientific studies that have proven harmful effects of excessive crying...please read about these before letting your baby cry for any extended amount of time.

So grateful  
I feel fortunate to have found this book. As a mom who is expecting her second child, I had followed my instinct with my first child - who was not the best sleeper. I felt bad hearing and seeing others have such an easy time. At the same time, I second guessed myself thinking maybe I went about things in the wrong way. Reading this gives me more tools, resources and confidence to go with my instincts.
