Necessary advice and instruction.

Weisbluth is a little "wordy." However, if you cut through that, the advice is sound and firm...and it works. It just makes sense that as parents we must know what's best for our child. It's up to us to set the schedules and make the decisions. Following old adages like, "he'll let you know what he's tired" is foolish. You wouldn't let your child decide that he didn't need to eat. It's just as dangerous to have inadequate sleep as it is to have improper nourishment. We all should remember that we're the parents, and they're just children. They need us.

We all feel better!

We started reading this when our daughter was 6 months. It has been very helpful. Now I know what to expect out of her sleeping schedule. I know how much she needs to sleep for her age, when to put her down for naps, and I have confidence when I have to leave her upset about being put down that I'm doing what's best for her. I now know how very important sleep is for a baby and feel better about the sacrifice it takes on my part. It's so much easier now that I'm not constantly questioning whether she's really tired or not. I can read the signs and the clock and I'm confident!

Note: It's pretty redundant when you read it cover to cover - I think you could easily skip around to the chapters you feel apply to your child.
