If your kid has colic than this is a perfect book. It seemed to talk about nothing but colic which is fine. I got a few good tips out of it.

Our 3 week old would not stop crying. A nurse recommended this book to us. I am so glad we got it! The advice is so simple and so effective! My baby and I are both much happier now. We also got the DVD - I would recommend that as well!

I thought that this book was somewhat helpful. It was a quick read. Although, the information was good I wish that I had checked it out from the library so I would not have an extra book on my shelf.

It Worked, 02/25/2009

I was skeptical of this book, but after a couple of months of dealing with a baby with colic, I was ready to give anything a try.  To my amazement the advice in the book worked.  If I did the five S's (or in my case four, we didn't need the pacifier) in order it would calm my daughter down, usually in minutes.  The only thing I would recomend is to buy a white noise machine, it is so much easier then trying to make a sushing noise for more then a few minutes.

Makes you think in a different way and gives some great tips! It does a great job of repeating important concepts so you remember.

Sleep Easy, 12/29/2008

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

I gave birth to my first children, a set of identical twin girls, last December. My mom gave me this book right when I had them, and of course, did not have time to read it all the way through. I did read most of it, and it was SO helpful. The "5 S's" was probably the best part of the book. Because of what I WAS able to read with the hectic schedule of taking care of twins as a first time mom, I managed to get both girls on the same schedule, they've been sleeping through the night since they were a month old, and have been 'easy' babies. I purchased this book for a cousin who just had a baby and will be buying one for everyone I know who has a baby. I highly recomend it.

Happiest Baby on the Block, 11/21/2008

Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 2 out of 5

I was disappointed, after it was so highly recommended.
A lot of the information was given at the hospital, the day after delivery. I was looking for something to ease the growing pains of teething.
Maybe I'll try the other book, at the library, to see if it meets my expextations.

Very useful book, 09/30/2008
By luvtobake, Massachusetts
Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

This book is a more in-depth look at why babies cry and how to soothe them quickly. The complimentary video is a great tool but if you are looking for more of the "why's" and "how comes", I would recommend reading this book.
