What are your favorite parenting books for sleep training, and general parenting tips? We have read pretty much nothing, even through pregnancy, but now that the girls are 2 months and I will be going back to work in 3 weeks, we want to get them transitioned to their room/crib, establish a "bed time", naps. etc. Up until now, we just bring them to our room when we go to bed and wake them to eat every 3 hours, but we are thinking it is time for a more long-term schedule. Thanks!

    The sleep lady book saved my life, while my bad sleeper still gets up occasionally, it is much improved over the 4-7 times a night waking which nearly killed us, and I thank that book for it.

    I haven't read these yet, but "Nuture Shock," and "Baby Wise" were recommended to me :)
