Missing info on Kindle edition by Firefly (North Carolina)  2 Stars
November 13, 2009
The Kindle edition is missing sentences-I've counted 4 paragraphs that end in a semicolon or mid-phrase, and I'm only 17% of the way through the book. I reported the problem to the content division of Kindle, but you may want to buy a hard copy of the book in the meantime.

No-Cry Nap Solution is AWESOME! by J. Kaelin (Louisville, KY USA)  5 Stars
October 15, 2009
I am a first-time mother to a daughter who is 5 months old. She is a wonderful night sleeper, but a terrible napper. She is not your typical easy-going baby either.... so she desperately needs her naps! She takes "power naps," or as Pantley calls them "Catnaps," just fine... and I thought. "well, I suppose that's all she needs." Even though deep down I just knew she was still tired and would really benefit from a longer nap. I had never been able to get her to nap longer than 25-30 minutes in her crib, and no more than 45-50 minutes in my arms. And even when she did take a nap in her crib, she would often cry for a long time before falling asleep - when I say cry - I mean CRY! It killed me:-( And I usually ended up taking her out and just holding her.
I was so tired of people (and authors) telling me to let her cry it out! I never felt good about that, and it never worked for us! For a baby to cry for more than 30 minutes... something is just not right. When I did some research and found Elizabeth Pantley's book/website, I thought, "FINALLY an author who writes about NOT crying!" After going all over town to various book stores... I finally found the "No Cry Nap Solution"... I read it all THAT NIGHT! Need less to say, my daughter soundly sleeps for two naps a day. Oh, and the naps are anywhere from 80 to over 90 minutes long EACH, which I never dreamed would happen. She naps in her car seat, which is in her stroller (and yes, I brought it in the house)... but it works! I feel like if I can get her body used to napping longer, then we'll work on the location LATER!
Ok, I need to get some non-baby things done around the house while she sleeps.. but I just wanted to quickly send a big THANK YOU from my home to yours:-)

Pantley saves another toddler by Jamie M. Rader (EAFB, AK) 5 Stars
October 05, 2009
From the time my child was an infant, not sleeping at all through the night, I have turned to Elizabeth Pantley's advice. She has, time and time again, provided customizable solutions for my family that have solved our sleeping problems. My child went from waking about 10 times a night to sleeping the whole night and now, as a toddler, is beginning to transition from one nap to no nap during the day. I turned to "The No-Cry Nap Solution" to get advice on how to patiently help my child make the transition, and to educate myself on what to expect and how to handle it so that naptimes wouldn't end in tears and hoarse throats. I highly recommend every single one of her books to every parent.

Pantley offers pragmatic, creative, common-sense solutions by I. Gordon (Queens, New York, USA) 5 Stars
August 19, 2009
Are you the kind of parent who doesn't have the heart to let your baby cry it out? But also don't want your baby's needs to hold you hostage? Elizabeth Pantley's no-cry approach offers a much-needed third way. Her pragmatic, non-dogmatic common-sense approach allows parents to find compromise solutions that meet the needs of both parents and child.
Our baby used to take extremely short naps and wake up obviously tired. Following Ms. Pantley's suggestions we purchased a baby hammock (Baby Hammock Motion Bed Set - Blue) and used the preemptive jiggling approach, and as a result our baby is now taking longer naps.
Thanks to Elizabeth Pantley's advice everybody is happy: baby is getting more sleep and parents have some much-needed downtime during the day.

Great tips and tricks for AP and frustrated parents! by Happy Target Mom 5 Stars
June 07, 2009
I bought this book because my 3 month old wouldn't nap outside of my arms or in his swing. I was getting antsy and was eager to find a book that shared my gentle parenting style as opposed to the advice of fellow moms, "Let him fuss in his crib, he'll get the picture" and so forth.
The book has great specific pland by age and issue, motion sleeping, sleeping in arms and nursing to sleep to name a few. Elizabeth's style is easy going and she has options for every style of parenting, be it co-sleeping or not.
I highly recommend this book!
