i like it. we haven't strictly implemented anything yet but it has hints/tips through it that can be used easily on their own without any hassle.
hmmm...does that make sense? what i'm trying to say is that she gives you ways/steps to making some significant changes (if you want to) but also offers smaller tips that you can put in place with or without bigger changes.
i like that she takes things in small steps, no major changes overnight.
I've got it too! Like Sloane I've found that it is full of lots of clever little tips and tricks. Definately a good one to start with early on IMO so you gets some good patterns in place for down the track.
I can't wait to read it. Little Evie sleeps fairly well but I want other techniques to get her over to sleep rather than feeding for when she is a bit older - don't want to start a negative sleep association that we can't break!!
It starts out by explaining what is normal for babies when it comes to sleep and settling, which is immensely reassuring for new mummies worrying that they are doing everything wrong. It helps to put things into perspective - ie, babies don't sleep like adults, and they shouldn't - and give you realistic goals - eg, 5 hours straight sleep for a young baby is "sleeping through".
Pantely then talks about common 'problems' that parents may want to change and gives some tips and advice for how to change things in a gentle manner.
She also has a framework for devising your own sleep plan to gently alter your baby's sleep associations and habits. You have to fill in all the details, however. She doesn't tell you "do this, this and that", or anything like that. It's all entirely up to you and depends on your own unique situation and goals.
