4.0 out of 5 stars Forget Gina Ford..., 17 Jul 2005

By	Corduroy Angel (Abby) (Cumbria, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: How to Calm, Connect, and Communicate with Your Baby (Mass Market Paperback)

This is a great book for new mums - very positive, reassuring and helpful, but also compulsive reading! Tracy Hogg's compassionate approach to crying babies and their concerned mums is a breath of fresh air after all the rhetoric of controlled crying. I didn't believe it was right to leave my baby to cry - even for a short time - and this book gave me the confidence to parent the way I wanted to without feeling neurotic and, importantly, whilst knowing I was in fact creating a bond of trust.

By detailing the various baby types (my first was an Angel but my second was definitely Spirited!) and how best to handle them, Tracy Hogg restores a feeling of control to frazzled parents.

The E.A.S.Y. parenting schedule gives baby the routine she requires whilst not imposing an inflexible system on the mother... you watch the baby, not the clock! But it's not all about the structure, it's about 'tuning in' to your individual baby's needs and identifying the signs of hunger, boredom, tiredness et al before the crying starts. Forget Gina Ford... this lady loves babies and it shows.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ideal for first time and repeat parents, 30 Nov 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: How to Calm, Connect, and Communicate with Your Baby (Hardcover)

I have read and re-read this book many times - for both my first and second child. It encourages you to see your baby as an individual from the first day, to look and understand how he or she is trying to communicate with you. As you get into practise, following the down-to-earth advice, your baby becomes clearer. With my second child, I found this allowed me time to enjoy my baby, without worry over 'too much' crying, etc. For first time parents, reading this before you baby is born will allow you time to think about how you want to parent your child. It isnt just about getting your baby to sleep. It is about enjoying those vital early months, communicating with your baby, and watching their fascinating development take place.

2.0 out of 5 stars No answers for better SLEEP, 26 Jul 2002

By A Customer

I had heard that this was a good book to find out how to get your baby to sleep through the night, but it really isn't about sleep at all - just a few pages. As a mother of three, much of the rest was common sense, although sometimes too much so: very much the author's opinions (not always meshing with mine). I don't like that she presents herself as against breastfeeding, having choice is good but discounting science (which she does repeatedly) to justify choice is not. If you are looking for a book on SLEEP though, try The No-Cry Sleep Solution: Gentle Ways to Help Your Baby Sleep Through the Night
