Wish I had read it sooner!

I am not a reader but after having trouble with the baby I decided to read this book. It could’ve saved me lots of trouble early on and now I’m looking forward to using the advice in this book for my next baby.

Must for new parents

Really enjoyed this book, simple and science based tips for new parents. Highly recommend if you’re nervous about how to get your child to sleep well and how to soothe them with ease

excelent

This book is great for new moms read it! will solve a lot of questions.

So Great

A wonderful help and very calming narrator for the whole family at bedtime. Very insightful and well written. I feel more confident having the knowledge and tools to soothe my baby. I can calm him in under a minute, preventing hysteria, now that I've mastered the 5 Ss to his particular taste, and it only took me a week of practice. Thank you so much.

excellent to prepare for new kid

loved it! very useful information that I used during the read. it worked as it said with the 5 s. would highly recommend.

Must Read For All Parents

My wife and I are new parents. A friend of mine recommended this book he has twins and it changed his life. I read this book and as long as my baby girl isn’t craving some boob I can quiet her and get her to sleep in a matter of minutes consistently! This book has made our nights easier and our baby happier!

Nothing short of amazing!

I can’t say enough about this book other then I’m sad it took me so long to find it.
This should be given to every parent upon leaving the hospital.
The best part is how it’s data and science based.
It kills a lot of myths out there like “a baby needs quiet to sleep” wrong! The womb is very loud.
“A baby wants there arms free to move” Wrong! A baby can’t control their arms and moving them wakes them up and scares them at night.
And more.
So do yourself a favor. Don’t believe me. Go read this book. If you don’t like it Audible will refund you.

useful information

this was a very informative book. I was able to use some of the techniques in this book to soothe my baby.

to the bad reviews; they hate knowledge

this book is a healthy balance of science and conventional wisdom. it systematically dismantles myths and tells you why these myths exist and if they are harmful or not. i have already helped my friends babies fall asleep with the 5 S theory; it took less than 5 minutes.

Great reinforcement of basic principles

Starts from the basics (baby steps .. excuse the pun) of the things that should really be common sense but that nervous or first time moms may need to know. A lot of repetition in some cases, but solid, proven principles
