A breakthrough approach for a good night's sleep--with no tears

There are two schools of thought for encouraging babies to sleep through the night: the hotly debated Ferber technique of letting the baby "cry it out," or the grin-and-bear-it solution of getting up from dusk to dawn as often as necessary. If you don't believe in letting your baby cry it out, but desperately want to sleep, there is now a third option, presented in Elizabeth Pantley's sanity-saving book The No-Cry Sleep Solution.

Pantley's successful solution has been tested and proven effective by scores of mothers and their babies from across the United States, Canada, and Europe. Based on her research, Pantley's guide provides you with effective strategies to overcoming naptime and nighttime problems. The No-Cry Sleep Solution offers clearly explained, step-by-step ideas that steer your little ones toward a good night's sleep--all with no crying.

Summary: A Working Mom's helper
Comment: As a working Mom of two this book was a great help to me! My first child was not always the best sleeper and after a year of going to work surviving with my IV of coffee in the morning, my sister gave me this book. Before getting this book, we did try to let my daughter "cry it out", only to watch her throw up in her crib from being so upset- I knew that wasn't an option ever again!! This book works- thanks sis!Mommy's High Heel Shoes

Summary: had success
Comment: I had great success when using this book when my daughter (now almost 5) was a baby. My husband and I were exhausted - she was born a month early and had sleep issues almost from the word "go." Once we read this book and started incorporating some of the suggestions, her sleep habits were right where they needed to be.

Summary: Basic concepts, needs a lot of patience
Comment: The concepts are basic and common sense. It's just incredibly difficult to implement them when you are working and already sleep deprived.

Summary: Some good tips but overall didn't work for me
Comment: I really delved into this book hoping this would be the solution for my baby. I think perhaps if I had gotten my hands on it when my baby was younger I would have had more success. My baby is four months and just won't go to sleep on her own no matter what I tried. She was still crying every night and inevitably I still ended up rocking her back to sleep. On the upside this book has helped me establish a more consistent routine which I think really works for my baby. Now if only I could get some help on how to get baby to sleep without crying...

Summary: I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!
Comment: At first when I read this book it seemed too involved and I was a tad bit turned off by what seemed like a lot of work. I set the book aside and admittedly didn't follow it to the T. I did however implement some of the basic ideas, no nursing/sucking to sleep and gradually assisting to sleep less and less etc and what I have now is a baby that puts himself to sleep without ever having to let him cry it out. I did try the cry it out method, I tried it after reading this book thinking that this book was too involved but I just couldn't do it and I don't think my son had the personality for it too. So back to the book I went. To my total shock I started noticing I was doing less and less to assist him to sleep until I just started trying to put him down awake (sleepy of course and after a good dose of cuddling too) and he would just roll over and go to sleep. I am truly impressed I really didn't think there was ever any possibility that a baby would eventually be able to put himself to sleep without some form of crying it out. Not my little man, we did it!! He is six months, I read this book when he was less then three months old and just started implementing the suggestions prior to any habits forming. I think that is vital, to start this BEFORE you develop any bad sleep habits. Also I am pretty sure had I followed this book with more dedication he would have been putting himself to sleep a lot sooner but hey, I did what was comfortable for me and my family and it worked out all without having to leave him to cry it out in a hysterical fit of sadness and frustration. I am a happy mama!!!
