I suppose I should have a baby to review this book, since I don't know from experience that it works, but I can say that I am not as nervous about bringing my baby home, and am glad to have some techniques already in my bag of tricks to help her sleep and stay calm.

Absolutely highly recommend this book to all expecting parents (or those with newborns). Happiest Toddler book also excellent.

I am due Aug 22, 2009, and I will most definitely be trying the 5 S's..not sure if I'll do them right or not, but it's worth a try!

The first half was horrible, the second half had some good ideas.

Don't waste time on the book, get the DVD.  Especially for first time parents, this DVD will show you how to calm a screaming baby...you will be shocked and amazed!
Watch the DVD and save yourself a ton of time...it's way better!

Not finished yet. I think the author is pretty silly in always referencing our prehistoric ancestors' wisdom in caring for their babies. Apparently as human babies evolved their brains got so big they had to be born earlier, so cavemoms knew to mimic womb conditions for their premature infants. Seriously? Even a cavewoman would understand that this is very bad science.

I think the author has an overactive imagination. But many people swear by the methods, even if the author's reasoning is juvenile at best.   hide
