Sleep sense by Megan Faure
Are you suffering from sleep deprivation because your baby will just not sleep through the night? Have you tried everything and reached the end of your tether? Then this is the book you have been waiting for. It offers the same simple, sensible solutions to ensure you and your baby will got a good night's sleep by establishing healthy sleeping habits. Learn to set the stage for sleep with: realistic expectations; appropriate sensory experiences during the day; the right sleep zone; the elimination of hunger or medical reasons for night wakings; healthy and sufficient day sleeps; good sleep associations to prime your baby for independent night soothing and teach him to re-settle by himself; solutions for separation issues. In addition the book offers an age-related trouble shooting section where desperate parents will find quick fixes. The Sleep sense approach to sleep coaching is gentle and based on the natural and age-appropriate capacity your baby has for self-calming or soothing, and for separation from you.
