About the book, The No-Cry Sleep Solution

StaceySnGeorgia

Is the trick co-sleeping? I read a few excerpts. I can't afford to buy the book and would love more info.

this. and no, it's not telling you to cosleep. it helps you not have to cosleep anymore.

It's for everyone. The main thing I got out of it is to create a routine that fits your baby. We do a bath, quiet playtime, a bottle, read a couple books, and then rock until he falls asleep.

I borrowed the book from the library so I didn't have to buy it. See if your local library has a copy.

ETA: I agree with PP that you shouldn't be sleep-training a 3-mo-old. But you can start a bedtime routine, which might help.

I bought mine used on amazon.com for less than $3. If I were you I would read the whole book.

It's really not sleep training and yes, I would check out your local library. That's how I read it.

I do a routine starting around 930, he wakes up every hour, most of the time he doesn't nurse just needs to be rocked again. I don't think it is healthy for him to wake up so often.

Has he always done this?

Do you swaddle or use a paci?

If this is new, it just might be a growth spurt. Mine LO started sleeping like crap around 3 months but eventually got back into better sleep patterns.

I co-sleep and BF so that seems to help us quite a bit.

Have you tried swaddling? Playing white noise?

maybe try to do an earlier bedtime. when C was 3 months she went to bed at 6:30-7 so the routine started at 6. she would go at least 6 hours the first round. She was still swaddled at that age but not for much longer. GL.. i haven't read this book but from what i have heard it sounds like a great source.

It's not sleep training, it does actually have some tips for younger babies that will help encourage good sleep habits (and possibly reduce the need for sleep training later on).

You really should read the book. It has lots of suggestions for various situations so it is difficult to sum up (but no, it does not say co-sleeping is the solution).

Free from the library, or $3-4 used on amazon.
