I bought this book after trying various other books on baby sleep and having difficulty sticking to the routines and suggestions due to haveing a toddler as well as a baby and trying to help a baby to fall asleep by herself with a toddler in the room is difficult.
Tizzie has some usefull tips that I have put into practice like not putting baby into cot unless the end result is going to be sleep so that baby learns that cot is for sleeping. Also her routines are very detailed and she has different routines for different ages and routines for weaning babies, multiples and one for baby and toddler together. However, I use the routines as a guide for what to expect but I prefer to read my baby to know when she is sleepy and her routines are very much by the clock.
The main thing that most mothers want to know about sleep is how to teach their baby to settle themselves and although I found some of her tips usefull, her main suggestion is Cry it out which I was dissapointed with, it isnt for me.

I bought this book when my baby was about 3 months old and not settling into any kind of routine I had tried with her, waking up quite a lot during the night etc etc... Initially I tried to stick rigidly to the routines and the methods Tizzie goes through in the book, but still found baby could not wait until the set time in the routine to feed, would not self settle and did not sleep through the night... UNTIL: I started weaning at 4 months on the advice from Tizzie. This was a revelation and I have since been able to follow (although not to the exact letter) the routine for my baby's age, she has been satisfied, rarely cries, self settles at daytime sleep times and sleeps nearly 12 hours through the night. I don't think I would have started her on a routine as early as Tizzie advises (a matter of a couple of weeks old), but if you have been feeing on demand and waiting for your baby to "settle herself into a routine" (like so many people tell you that she eventually will(!) for a couple of months to no avail, then this book points you in the right direction.
In summary, I found the advice interesting, but would say not to worry about following it too rigidly, just use the parts that suit you (and more importantly, suit your baby).

I love this book. It was recommended to me by my sister before my son was born so I started using it right from the beginning. As a new parent I needed someone to tell me when a baby should sleep and for how long and when to feed. Other books I've read were just not specific enough.
I was able to breastfeed successfully until I returned to work. I would have given the book five stars but I did adapt the routines slightly but I think that is what anyone with common sense would do.
I also found the information on weaning helpful as it gave a clear guide on what foods to introduce and when.
I often have people comment on what a happy baby I have and that is because of the routines in Save Our Sleep.
My sister says the information on colic was really helpful in dealing with her second daughter.

Brilliant!
I give it 5 stars for two basic things that Tizzie Hall explains in her book and worked well with my baby and I: the 7 o'clock routine and the self settling method. Read more
