Book Description:
Right after "Is it a boy or a girl?" and "What's his/her name?," the next question people invariably ask new parents is "Are you getting any sleep?" Unfortunately, the answer is usually "Not much." In fact, studies show that approximately 25% of young children experience some type of sleep problem and, as any bleary-eyed parent will attest, it is one of the most difficult challenges of parenting.

Drawing on her ten years of experience in the assessment and treatment of common sleep problems in children, Dr. Jodi A. Mindell now provides tips and techniques, the answers to commonly asked questions, and case studies and quotes from parents who have successfully solved their children's sleep problems.

Unlike other books on the subject, Dr. Mindell also offers practical tips on bedtime, rather than middle-of-the-night-sleep training, and shows how all members of the family can cope with the stresses associated with teaching a child to sleep.

I just finished reading this book and I am thrilled with the results! My 4 month old was waking every 2 hours in the night and would not go to bed until I nursed her back to sleep. But now she sleeps on her own, and stays asleep all night. This book gives a few different idea on how to get your baby/child to sleep through the night, which is good, in case you don't like one of the suggestions. Also educates you as to why your child is acting so.

What a helpful book! This book provides sensible advice for getting your kids on a reasonable sleep schedule. It even works for parents who are uneasy about letting their baby cry. It helped bring sanity to our lives at a very stressful time. A+

This book helped us establish a good sleep routine with my first 2 babies and then gave some help with getting my third to make the transition from crib to "big bed" plus it gave some nice insight on how to deal with some bedtime struggles.
