    "No-cry sleep solution"... 3 different books...someone help me work out which one...?

    Following on from the other post I just did... I am looking for "No-cry sleep solution" by Elizabeth Pantley.

    But have discovered (in the last 2 minutes!) that there are 3 different books...

    Theres a nap one, which I don't think I need as its her nights that are just the worst.
    One that is just "No-cry sleep solution"
    And another one that says "No-cry sleep solution for toddlers and pre-schoolers"

    So what age are they talking when they say 'toddler and pre-schoolers'? Jazz is almost walking, does that make her a toddler?
    Which one would be most appropriate for a 10 month old?

    i think a toddler would be a walking talking 14mths onward . id grab the baby one , she is going to age considerably in the time frame that you'll be buying this book

    I would lean towards the toddler book. I think long term your money would be better spend on that one and maybe see if you library had the baby one. I have the toddler one and it is quite clear, must read it again for this 2nd bub. OH don't forget your local ABA may have a copy to borrow. Also have a look at Elizabeth Pantely's website, she has some downloads for working out bedtime routines etc (well she did last I looked, hope they are still there)

    When I was looking for sleep help with DD1 I did a lot of reading on various forums to see what others were doing. A lot of parents were recommending the toddler book, it was written after the baby one, so it a lot clearer and easier to follow. Problems with the baby one were ironed out with the toddler one. (gee hope I made sense)

    I have both and they are both very similar! The baby one goes through all the basics that are appropriate for all ages. I found the toddler one has more specific info for older toddlers like 2 and up when attitude comes into the mix. For the best overview of the "no-cry sleep solution" program I would go with the baby one.
