5.0 out of 5 stars A 'must read' for new mums, 13 Mar 2006
I read this excellent book when I was pregnant with my twins and found its down-to-earth, reassuring tone and approach very empowering. It is full of very useful advice. It made me feel that I would be able to cope when they arrived, and I did (without that armies of help that everyone assumes you need with twins). The other reviewers are right: it does work. My husband and I have never really suffered from the terrible sleep deprivation that everyone warned us about, thanks to the fact that early on we implemented its advice and our babies soon learned to fall asleep by themselves, which meant we had an acceptable stretch of sleep at night that got longer and longer as time went by. We've never had to wait for things to 'fall into place', as is sometimes the case with babies, as we were following a plan of action that would lead (we hoped) to their sleeping through the night. They now sleep happily from 7pm to 7am!

5.0 out of 5 stars Straigh Talking Solid Advice for Dads, 19 Jul 2005
By mike@thepieguide.com (Pitty Me, Durham) - See all my reviews
Excellent read and Iam implementing may of the ideas already. With two children 3 & 4 and a new born I thought I had all the angles covered. But after glancing at a work coleagues copy of the book I realised I been missing something so I rushed out to get it. It only goes to show you never know it all.

Being a Dad I urge other dads to read this. It explains in a staright forward and clear way some of the issues that face parents. At the time it seems like you are never going to master parenting, then you read on and see what you can do.

Iam sure that I'll be able to use some of the skills to master work colleagues!!!!

Thank you Barbara & Joe for an excellent life guide

5.0 out of 5 stars precise, to the point, and reassuring, 30 Jun 2005
By A Customer
as a young mom with a 2 month old, no prior experience with children, this book is my new bible. i only wish it had been printed while i was still expecting. the advice is straightforward, practical, clear cut, and easy to read. i especially liked the way the chapters are divided into different childcare topics, and each topic has succint points and tips. fantastic. and an enjoyable read. the book left me with hope that if another understanding mom- of twins!- managed, so could i. i would definitely recommend this book to my expectant friends.
