I just read the thread completely, and just wanted to thank everyone. I agree, you learn a lot from these forums. Is great because you are not been told what to do but just reading the experiences of others and reflecting on your own situation really helps!!

I might actually buy that book now. I am always a bit unsure about buying books and look for loads of advice before hand. I think I might actually like this one. If not.. I will let you know!

yes.. I am a new user. But I have been reading from this forum from a while ago.. it is just that I am a lazzy writer. I have a 9 month old .. Before she was sleeping ok at night (she was waking twice but I didnt mind that) but now... like 7 or more times. it is horrible. and I can't keep up. I am also doing a pHD so... need some sleep!

I will let you know how I go. Not planning to go "by the book", I think I will just takes what suits.

will report back...
