The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep Book Review

I don't know about you but when I was pregnant with my first child I had all sorts of questions running through my mind.  How do I do this...what if this happens....what if that happens? All the what ifs can really make a person crazy.  Thank goodness I had lots of family and friends around to share their wisdom and insight.  Unfortunately for some they don't always have that same support system.  But luckily there are great resources out there now days to help easy a new mother-to-be's mind. The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep Book is a great place for all your unanswered questions. As I was reading this book for my review I came across so many of the exact same questions I had with my first pregnancy. Boy do I wish I had this helpful resource back then. I am definitely keeping this copy and passing it onto someone at the next baby shower I go to. The book covers all sorts of commonly asked questions, and even some great ones I didn't even think about myself that are common to having a baby in today's society. Definitely a must read for every mommy to be!

Dr. Harvey Karp made doctors applaud and parents cheer with his brilliant solutions to centuries-old problems such as colic and tantrums. Now, in THE HAPPIEST BABY GUIDE TO GREAT SLEEP: Simple Solutions for Kids from Birth to 5 Years, Dr. Karp stuns the world again by solving the #1 problem plaguing new parents: exhaustion. Dr. Karp's surprising insights include:

How to train brand new babies to sleep better: Infants can be taught to sleep at least one extra hour from the first weeks of life! Dr. Karp shows how to safely boost baby sleep in just days.

What’s the best white noise (and which ones worsen sleep): The right white noise (low pitched and rumbling) is the key to good sleep—even through teething—for all babies. Plus, it even gives parents a more restful sleep

Why parents should always wake a sleeping baby: For good sleep, babies must learn how to self-soothe. The best way to teach babies how to fall back to sleep—when they rouse in the middle of the night—is to wake them just as they’re being put into bed.

How to enjoy the benefits - and avoid the risks - of swaddling: Swaddling dramatically improves a new baby’s sleep. Yet, many states are shockingly banning this ancient parenting tool. Smart moms should do it and Dr. Karp will teach them how to do it properly and safely.

The importance of powering down: Staring at bright screens at night (TVs, computers, phones) can wreak a toddler and a parent’s sleep.

Easy "no-cry" tips that end infant and toddler bedtime struggles in just days!

With THE HAPPIEST BABY GUIDE TO GREAT SLEEP, no longer will new parent have to suffer months of sleep deprivation and no longer will babies have to cry themselves to sleep.
