Read and reread this book for three children
I was having trouble figuring out the sleep thing with my first child, 10 years ago. I checked out six books from the library and read them all when he was 3 months old. I liked this one best and (mostly) stuck with it. I reread it when my second child came along and then re-reread it with the...

All babies are different
I tried his idea of putting my baby to bed early and then earlier . . . and what I got was a baby who would take a nice 45 minute nap at 6 or 6:30 pm and then was raring to go until 11 pm! We went back to an 8:30 bedtime and now she gets more sleep in total and gets to see her father at night....

No More Tears
I've used Dr. Weissbluth's book for my first two children, and with the advice I got from it, I feel like a saner person and a better mother. When my oldest son was two, he couldn't fall asleep on his own, and as a result didn't fall asleep until close to 11pm every night. Every day he threw...

Buy it!!
This is a wonderful addition to any new parent's bookshelf! The information in this book is based on facts - lots of sleep research was conducted before this book was written. I have a very happy baby with very healthy sleep habits!

Excellent reference book and great results
This book was concise, easy to follow, and had practical information on sleeping that worked wonders for our baby. I liked that it gave specific times for napping, feeding, etc. I read the book when my baby was 5 mos old. She had slept great as a newborn and then suddenly started waking up at...

Poorly Written and Unintelligible
I am a proponent of the "Cry It Out" method and have four-month-old twins. However, if you'd like to try this technique, I recommend talking to your pediatrician and other parents. Do NOT bother to read or buy this book. It's so poorly written that it's frustratingly unintelligible and...

Unscientific, dangerous, and will drive parents crazy (and needs an editor)
Dr. Weisbluth repeats the assertion that this book is based on science so many times that it's easy to get bamboozled into taking it seriously, especially as a sleep-deprived new parent whose brain isn't functioning at full capacity. My husband and I fell for it at first, in spite of my PhD in...

this book needs a good editor!
hi,we did cry it out ,and it did work for us. but, just fyi, it's not something you do once and that's it! periodically, we have to do it again, eg, after illness, development, time change!, etc. we've been more slack, not hard core with later attempts, but our son seems to have the 'basics' down...

A few good points in a very long book
The amazon.com review written by H. Grable pretty much sums up all the important points in this book for you in one paragraph. The book itself is a long tedious read. I was getting no sleep with my child and this book just made me feel sleepier. It talks extensively about why sleep is so...

This book is right on!
I am the mother of 3 children, all of which have been terrible sleepers. I bought this book when my now 5 year old was 10 months old. Following the Dr's instructions in the book, my up every hour baby was sleeping 12 hours/night without waking. I will say, I wish the book was laid out a bit...
