review 1: This is the best baby sleep book I've read so far, one that takes into account the differences in children's needs and personalities as well as parenting styles and preferences. It helps parents to understand how babies sleep, how much they need and how to get them the sleep they need. There is no magic formula, no 'this is how you must do it', just many tips and guidelines for getting baby to sleep and keeping him there. I can't say all my son's sleep problems have disappeared, but things have definitely improved and I feel like this book gave me the tools I need to keep improving.
review 2: I thought this really helped me find a way to get Finley to nap in her crib and for regular nap times. It took over a month and a half (of hell) but we finally got there.
... more She had colic, so she would only nap in her swing as a result and when she quickly outgrew the swing, it was a monumental task to get her to nap at all, let alone in her crib. This gave me some great advice- namely that I needed to put her down for naps exactly how she went to bed at night (this apparently was common- most babies who have a terrible time napping in their cribs do pretty well going down at night) Also gave good advice for all sorts of situations/age ranges/co sleeping etc... less

I love the "hush hour" suggestions. I will be using those as we approach the toddler years.

Pretty good. I wish it had more about how to get better napping results at daycare.

A lot of it seemed like common sense, or things that we were currently doing.

There's some advice that is ok for 1+, but not babies.
