Crying Baby, Sleepless Nights: Why Your Baby Is Crying and What You Can Do About It

Author: Sandy Jones

CBI Review: An easy to read book covering how to cope with a crying or sleepless baby, with an emphasis on keeping the baby close. Sandy reinforces the importance of parents adjusting their expectations rather than expecting the baby to be trained to sleep through the night.

The No-Cry Sleep Solution: Gentle Ways to Help Your Baby Sleep Through the Night

Author: Elizabeth Pantley & William Sears

Amazon Description: 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.


Nighttime Parenting: How to Get Your Baby and Child to Sleep

Author: William Sears

Amazon Description: Parenting is a full-time, twenty-four-hour-a-day job. Nighttime Parenting was written to make that job easier and to help the whole family--mother, father, baby--sleep better. It helps parents understand why babies sleep differently than adults, offers solutions to nighttime problems, and even describes how certain styles of nighttime parenting can aid in child spacing and lower the risks of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Renowned pediatrician Dr. William Sears helps you find a solution to your baby's sleepless nights and offers comprehensive, caring advice.
