I’m not in Ezzo and GFI-bashing interested here in this report. As a mother of three boys, each a little more than a year apart with another on the way, I see nothing wrong with most of the book Babywise.

I argue that these principles while presenting some strong, are not harmful to infants., you are actually very useful if appears after a month or two, your baby does not naturally to eat or sleep with each model, or if he / she has days and nights mixed But people take Ezzo is too far, when they know that their methods are directed gospel to calm, or love newborn claim -., or do they do anything. All they can do is to provide guidelines for the structure. Yet there is a tendency for the new parents of a newborn baby stop crying clearly worried solutions to cry and signed it feeding the child enough to do the right things. If you believe Ezzo (or Sears) that they hold can suffer your true relationship with your baby safely follow, because it’s the wrong attitude toward education. It is this formula seeking intimidated approach to parenting that the real danger to the health and psychology of the child, not the current guidelines in the book is. I like to think that all wild incident to hear from you at the root of this mentality came about Ezzo below. However, it is also true that all methods are created equal. With a preschooler, a child of two years, a baby and a child came into the house, my husband and I found that the philosophy that leans a little more toward where the Ezzo just better than the philosophy that Sears’ or even approve AAP, especially towards the end of the infant, the tendency for the child to go on parenting through the old stadium two years focus -. for the parents and children of two years – is noticeable time and requires. to practice a parent (or two) in this way is almost impossible if you are working or the age of your children close together. I agree that Babywise could a little more flexibility in his goodness and spices to use presentation. seems to assume that all the good ways to include parents and will be objective of a corrective position rather than an inexperienced. however, the basic principles are presented clearly and that is the purpose of this book. I found that the principles works especially well with my first son, who was crying a lot, had reflux and could be considered “a fussy baby.” The board was not necessary for my son next two babies who were more easily into the dining room / bedroom (and had an experienced mother). For warmth and depth, I recommend “The Secrets of Baby Whisperer” by Tracy Hogg, the best advice with Babywise brings a little humor and subtle examples of how to apply this stuff. But in the end philosophy, you can “Mission of Motherhood” by Sally Clarkson for a vision to try motherhood as a whole and then try to apply the advice in this regard Babywise. Nevertheless parenting (even children) not only help to eat and sleep directly … Although certainly feels like it style = “float during the first month of a couple
I want the critics who propose to respond that those of us who did not like Babywise not read or do not apply its principles correctly. I read, read and marked the book to a friend of mine recommended. And for a good month, I tried to put my faithful newborn on the Babywise schedule, but it did not work for my son. For example, my son often wakes up from his nap earlier than the schedule allowed. Sometimes he wakes up crying, sometimes happy. When he cried, I would allow him to cry, because the book suggests, if your baby wakes up crying that he did not get enough sleep. But he went back to sleep. So I feed him only to find he was hungry. But how was I to know that he was hungry … discussed babwise not even read clues “, decides Mom, Dad, when the nap starts and mom, not dad, decides when nap ends.” If your baby only he woke up happy, so I was really in a bind. He would play in her crib awake (even if I do not go to him) so now he felt activity before eating (a Babywise no-no). But when I fed him, he would be fed before 02.30 clock (another no-no Babywise). I tried to put him to bed earlier, because the book says for a nap, that if your child wakes up early, it was probably too tired and needed less activity, but my son is still awake after 45 -60 minutes. I was constantly stressed. After a month Babywise, my son still was not back to his birth weight. I heard with the system and my son quickly began to gain weight. We were both happy. I can not say that I disagree with the general concepts of the book … To help promote the full feedings instead of snacking, frequent feedings throughout the day, to distinguish baby day and night, and teaches a baby on his / her own bed, and the importance of sleep for both a baby and his / her parents. I disagree with the presentation. Babywise assumes all babies fit into his schedule, and in truth, it is not easy. This is obviously a very controversial book. I do not think that it relates to an MD / PhD after the name to know something about raising a baby, but the fact that the author has absolutely no medical / nursing background myself, especially when concepts are so radically different from what most pediatricians / child psychiatrists recommend. Just because something works (ie get your baby to sleep through the night) are not the best for your child. As a side note, I have never slept together or wearing my baby in a sling all day (if I am, whether it is for you and your baby, it works great feeling … it’s not all just not my style of parenthood). Nevertheless, I believe babies need parental guidance, but I think parents should consider their babies temperament. Once I began to read other books, I met my best clues babies playing, and I no longer had to fight him to sleep, eat or stay awake. I used a combination of several other books (No Cry Sleep Solution, Sleep Guide Gentle Lady and Baby Whisperer) and I am happy to announce that I am a 9 month old who sleeps 11 hours per night and takes 2 good naps have day … oh and slept 10 hours / night for 3 months. It is an absolute joy and wherever I tell people how happy and satisfied, it is … in the church, restaurants and shops. It can be done without Babywise!

I read this book think it would be nice to have my baby on a schedule at the beginning, because I also 18 months old, but the timing they suggest is completely unrealistic for infants and it was much more frustrating to try to do everything “by the book “, as it just go with my natural instincts (and the integration of information from was other books.) My second child turned out to be a pretty child be with high demands (quite different from my first show why this technique parenthood is not to work with all children), and we all have much better after I decided to simply “wear out” in his Bjorn mostly. If it is older (about 9 weeks) it got naturally outgrow their need to be kept permanently and incredibly happy in a crying baby now than when tired or hungry. From the beginning it was a double bed and now at 12 weeks, she took a long nap and regular (two 2-1/2 nap nap 01:00 and 01:00) and sleeps regularly 9p-7a, Waking 0 or 1 time for food (which is not to cry and demand breastfeeding.) I consider a moderate person myself, I’m certainly not dedicated to attachment parenting and I’m really a big fan of planning kids b / c they seem to really prefer to have a routine, but I think it should be done in an age-appropriate basis (3-4 months earlier), with the individual needs of the child into account. I can not imagine a life without the sheer joy of rocking your child to sleep, and keeps a small defenseless life in your arms while they sleep from me. If you follow this book, it seems to me that a large part of the joy of being a parent of a child would be removed – this is a short time, it’s a shame to lose.
with that said, you’re obviously looking review this book because you need information about your child, yes, I have some other recommendations.
For more information sleep, I recommend Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child by Dr. Marc Weissbluth, a pediatrician. Ferber book (also a doctor, a pediatric sleep specialist is written), the resolution of sleep your child is also very good. They scream both books, but with much more age appropriate recommendations and scientifically sound. (For example, a baby is simply no development can soothe himself to sleep until they are at the age of 12-14 weeks to learn, so it is quite absurd, because a younger child cry herself to sleep because you not see a reduction in crying, until they can learn to soothe themselves. If you weeping at a time suitable for their age, they may be a little cry, but the tears have less quickly, because they can learn to soothe themselves to to sleep.) When planning your newborn is your main concern, I think the Baby Whisperer book is much more realistic, because it is much more flexible and teaches how parents care for their baby sends instructions, but as I think the book is best suited for slightly older babies (2-3MB +), although the author thinks should start his routine at birth. If this book appeals to you because you have a fussy baby and are at your wit’s end, see The Happiest Baby on the Dr. Harvey Karp and The Fussy Baby Book: Parenting Your High-Need Child from birth until the age of five years by Dr. Sears. I do not think that anything with Dr. Sears says, agree especially his pro-co-sleeping, but I think he’s right about meeting the needs of young children (less than 3 -4 months old), the are more petty than the average. There is some good information in this book, and I’m sure it has many parents, especially new parents who have not helped much about babies, but it also has some really, really bad advice. (I agree with the comment that you should try to four hours without even having to leave a glass of water and see how you feel happy says.) The other thing that drives me crazy about this book is that it is ridiculous to think, You know more than your baby does when he needs to eat. Believe me, from the first day your baby is fully equipped to tell you when it needs to eat. Please do not let that convince you otherwise this book. (Now, sleep is another matter, and I recommend the book Weissbluth to read on sleep.) If you do purchase this book at the end, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, inject your own common sense in this approach, because I could really see how it could lead to disastrous consequences precisily next year (especially during the hot summer months). And try especially appreciate and love your children and do not have the education of children as a war between you and them think. What they need is above all your love and trust that you meet their basic needs. The first few months are all about building confidence and makes them feel safe in this world, so frightening for them compared to the in utero environment they lived in the 9 … Read more
