Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: How to Calm, Connect, and Communicate with Your Baby

“TRACY HOGG HAS GIVEN PARENTS A GREAT GIFT–the ability to develop early insight into their child’s temperament.”
–Los Angeles Family

When Tracy Hogg’s Secrets of the Baby Whisperer was first published, it soared onto bestseller lists across the country. Parents everywhere became “whisperers” to their newborns, amazed that they could actually communicate with their baby within weeks of their child’s birth. Tracy gave parents what for some amounted to a miracle: the ability to understand their baby’s every coo and cry so that they could tell immediately if the baby was hungry, tired, in real distress, or just in need of a little TLC. Tracy also dispelled the insidious myth that parents must go sleepless for the first year of a baby’s life–because a happy baby sleeps through the night. Now you too can benefit from Tracy’s more than twenty years’ experience. In this groundbreaking book, she shares simple, accessible programs in which you will learn:
• E.A.S.Y.–how to get baby to eat, play, and sleep on a schedule that will make every member of the household’s life easier and happier.
• S.L.O.W.–how to interpret what your baby is trying to tell you (so you don’t try to feed him when he really wants a nap).
• How to identify which type of baby yours is–Angel, Textbook, Touchy, Spirited, or Grumpy–and then learn the best way to interact with that type.
• Tracy’s Three Day Magic–how to change any and all bad habits (yours and the baby’s) in just three days.
At the heart of Tracy’s simple but profound message: treat the baby as you would like to be treated yourself. Reassuring, down-to-earth, and often flying in the face of conventional wisdom, Secrets of the Baby Whisperer promises parents not only a healthier, happier baby but a more relaxed and happy household as well.
From the Trade Paperback edition.

From: Amazon Posted: Jul 02, 2008 Type: User Review Yawn

Rather boring. She says alot of what is common sense to most moms and there are no "secrets" to what mother nature gave us. I would not recommend it to friends or family. The one positive - its a really cheap book!

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 23, 2008 Type: User Review Good in theory, hard to implement

I read this book back-to-back with Babywise, and both books recommend the same EASY approach. The basics are worth following, but I found some of the specifics in the Baby Whisperer laughably hard to implement. Specifically, there are not enough...

This is the absolute best baby book around. I used the tips with all three of my children and it worked like a charm! They all became great sleepers and eaters. The best part is not having that overwhelmed feeling because you don't know what...

"If you follow a structured routine, you will solve all your baby problems" is the idea of this book.
The routine explained in the book is called E.A.S.Y. (Eating, Activity, Sleeping, You). The author explains that the times of the...

This book is great for new and expectant parents. It covers all the bases. I read it after my 4-month old had developed napping "issues" and wished I had read it much earlier in his little life! It would have saved me a lot of crying (both...

First of all if you are considering purchasing this book for yourself or someone else, ignore the whole breastfeeding issue that some reviewers seem to have. It is such a small part of the overall book that it seems insignificant to me. I could...
