The gist is - sleep begets sleep. More naps = better sleep at night. Don't let baby be awake more than 2 hours (my pediatrician said even 30 minutes is enough sometimes!) - so that advice works! And there, you read the book ;-)
Bought this book on advice of a friend, but was disappointed to discover how thick and wordy it is. The author offers some valuable advice on the importance of a schedule and what to expect and implement at each age of infancy and young childhood, but 80% of the book is simply repeating the same advice or needless anecdotes or self-praise for his methods. Frankly there's nothing in here you can't find for free on parenting websites, but if you're a first-time soon-to-be parent trying desperately trying to educate yourself, you could do worse than this book. Just expect it to be a slog and don't be afraid to skim chapters - chapter 2 has all the info you need, then you can toss it or give it away.
My worst parenting purchases to date. I’m assuming most people purchasing this would be in the same boat as we were - baby isn’t sleeping; parents are losing their minds. This book rambles on and on about the importance of sleep, which we’re all aware of and is the reason we’re buying books to help us, and does so in a way that makes you feel like a failure as a parent. I had serious anxiety that my baby was going to end up the class bully and a total problem child because at 4 months he wasn’t sleeping through the night. The author seems to think there is only one way in the world that works to get babies to sleep and that is “extinction†- lock them in a room alone all night and don’t go in until morning, regardless of how hard they cry. While that may work for some, it doesn’t work for all and there was no way I could do that with my baby. He mentions other strategies but is quick to bash them. He manipulates research and uses anecdotal accounts to try to strengthen his argument for extinction. If you’ve tried everything and are looking for a book to make you feel ok about going the extinction route, I guess you could buy this book but skim it - don’t read the whole redundant thing. But, honestly, there are better books out there that will make you feel like a good parent for using this or any other sleep strategy that are a quarter of the length of this. We ended up buying Precious Little Sleep and it was the best baby book so far.
Yes, yes yes! Weissbluth's methods work if you take the time to read (and understand them) and then decide to commit to them. It is not necessary to read the book cover to cover since the book provides information and plans for an array of age groups. You can focus on the introductory chapter to provide important foundational info and then use the table of contents to guide you to the chapter on your child's age and/or specific sleep problem. Weissbluth knows sleep and the importance of establishing healthy sleep habits from the get go: he has 30+ years experience as a pediatrician, teaches at Northwestern Medical School, and founded the Sleep Disorder Center at Chicago's Children's Memorial Hospital. His methods are humane, rational, and rooted in research and experience. And they WORK on real, fussy, irrational little people.Before I had kids, a colleague of mine said "One piece of parenting advice for you: sleep train your baby. My friends who didn't hate their lives." I took that advice seriously so read this book when my daughter was one month old, after it was recommended to me by my pediatrician, who is himself a father and a very compassionate and rational person. Our baby was incredibly fussy. Most of her waking hours were spent scream crying (she had no physical ailments), so I decided if our kid was gonna scream when awake, she'd better learn to be a good sleeper. At roughly four months of age (the age at which Weissbluth considers it developmentally appropriate to really dive into sleep training), I started sleep training...which basically means teaching a baby to fall asleep on her own and to put herself back to sleep on her own when she wakes. I can say confidently that Weissbluth's methods work IF you commit to them. And there is little reason not to commit to them as he clearly articulates his methods and provides explanations and research findings to support them. If you read this book, you will understand why establishing healthy sleep patterns is so crucial and how sleep problems early on can lead to developmental problems (behavioral, emotional) later in childhood.As far as I know, we had the only baby and now have the only toddler in our friend group who has had NO problems sleeping (from age 4 months forward)--during naps and at night, and that is because we strictly followed Weissbluth's methods and take sleep very seriously. We schedule activities/outings around naps and bedtime, which has never been a problem. We decided we could sacrifice some adventure and spontaneity for a few years until nap times are a thing of the past, so that we could establish and maintain good sleep habits for our daughter. Everyone else we knew was talking about sleep regressions, etc. Our baby never had any. Even during teething, no sleep problems. Weening off the breast, no sleep problems. After vaccinations, no sleep problems. Sick with a cold or fever, no sleep problems.It is true that legit sleep training may hamper your social life for a few years while your child requires consistent nap and bedtimes, but for us it was worth the tradeoff to have a healthy, well-rested kid who knows how to sleep. My husband and I have more quality time together than our friends because our kid sleeps.The method itself: Weissbluth provides different variations on sleep training, but he is clear that "cry it out" is the quickest, most effective, and least traumatic way to teach babies to sleep. Often times, parents see "cry it out" on paper and immediately write it off, thinking it must be inhumane. "Oh, I can't let my baby cry!," they think. However, that assumption is irrational and not based on evidence. Weissbluth does a great job explaining the reality behind cry it out and how it is the most humane and effective way to sleep train. As stated above, Weissbluth has over 30 years experience as a pediatrician, teaches at Northwestern Medical School, and helped found a sleep clinic at a children's hospital that specializes in sleep disorders. He is not a dungeon master. This guy knows kids and sleep and the problems caused by bad sleep habits started in infancy. My husband did NOT take the time to read this book, so when I decided to use "extinction cry it out," (feeding, loving on my baby and then placing her in her crib and walking out) he thought it was cruel. But after I explained the rationale behind it and her crying stopped after only a few days, and our kid slept, he became a believer. Each time we hear friends talk about the sleep problems their kids have and hear how they never let their kids cry or don't think it's important to maintain a consistent sleep schedule, I am reminded how wonderful Weissbluth's method is. My baby cried a bit the first few naps and nights we did cry it out. But then she slept. And at age 3 she still sleeps. And she wakes up happy and full of energy. She feels confident because she has mastered the skill of putting herself to sleep and she trusts her parents because we respect her need for consistent sleep. Meanwhile my friends who refuse a few days of cry it out have suffered through years of crabby, overly tired kids crying or of bed sharing and never getting any quality sleep or alone time. If you're ready to get serious about sleep, this book will change your life.
So effing long! Google the cliff notes...save yourself the time....unless you're interested in all the studies that back the information given. Agree with a lot of the points, but I got so bored with reading it I finally just googled the cliff notes and wish I would've done that from the begining.
The negative of this book is that each chapter has very little structure. For example, the chapter on sleep solutions is over 120 pages and has almost no clear internal structure except for sometimes helpful and sometimes vague paragraph headings. The chapter on sleep at 3-4 months of age has 50 pages on baby temperament that is completely rambling. I would say the only way to use this book would be to read each chapter completely and take notes being aware that much of it is not practical information. This is not a reference guide and often does not offer summaries that give clear action plans but instead rather vague principles. It is also written very much to mothers so if you're a father reading this working hard to raise your child you might find this very frustrating when it ends sections with comments along the lines of fathers should help to, like on the weekends.
