It's not only for mother's who are having problems with their children not sleeping, it's for all mother's to better understand their children's needs. It shouldn't be an option at all, and this book agrees. This is such a great help to all mother's out there who don't feel that letting their babies cry themselves to sleep is admiral option. It helped me understand her sleeping patterns, and to help my princess through them. I LOVE this book. I have told every mother I can about this book.

It also enlightened me to many reality's that I did not know and so changed my pserspective on the whole problem. I was so thankful when I read this book. If nothing else it made me feel relief that I was not alone in having a child that was not a good sleeper and not alone in being a parent that did not want to let my son "cry it out" as everyone was telling me. Thanks Elizabeth. I implemented some of Elizabeth's ideas and immediatly my son slept better.

I've used it both for my toddler as well as my baby and had excellent results.Elizabeth Pantley's style is easy-going yet precise; reading her book was actually fun and entertaining, which definitely helped in understanding the concepts Ms. If you want to become the best parent you can possibly be, read her books and apply them to your life. Pantley's books I read, and I was so intrigued by her writing that I bought all of her other work as well. I truly enjoyed reading this book; it includes a ton of practical tips and tricks that actually work. Pantley discussed. You will be amazed by the results you can achieve. What I most liked about the book was the fact that it all seemed so common sense; sometimes we just need to be reminded of some of life's most basic principles and apply them to the areas we have difficulties with, in this case sleep.This was the first of Ms.

Lots of good ideas for new moms. =) I haven't read the book, but got it for my daughter who has 4 month old twins. Obviously, she can use all the help she can get.

I have spent many hours reading childcare and sleep books and studies. I believe that these techniques accomplish what parents want for their children- close bonded relationships while still getting good sleep. It is important to realize that these techniques take some experimenation and patience. I am a family physican and I recently had a baby. The No Cry Sleep Solution techniques work. I recommend this book to many of my patients. And they are gentle.
