The baby sleep book: the complete guide to a good night's rest for the whole family - william sears

Americas favorite pediatric experts turn their attention to solving babies sleep problems in a definitive book that offers immediate results.

A comprehensive, reassuring, solution-filled sleep resource, this guide shows parents how to match the nighttime temperament of their baby to their own lifestyle, and provides practical tools parents need to help the entire family sleep better.

Everything you need to know about getting your baby or toddler to sleep -- from Americas foremost baby and childcare experts.

Instead of espousing the kind of one method fits all approach advocated in other baby sleep guides, the Sears family explains how you can create a sleep plan that suits the needs of your entire family.

With a sharp focus on the practical tools and techniques, The Baby Sleep Book covers such topics as: The facts of infant sleep vs.

adult sleep Figuring out where, when, and how your child sleeps best Fail-safe methods for soothing a crying infant How to make night nursing easier, and how to stop Nighttime fathering tips Whether co-sleeping makes sense for you Nap-time strategies that work Medical and physical causes of night waking Sleep habits in special situations such as traveling, teething, and illness.
