I absolutely loved that book. I read the Baby Whisperer when I was pregnant and thought: "That totally makes sense!" Once DS was born it all went out the window- I just couldn't put him down every time he slept. I loved cuddling and having him close to me.
I read HBOTB and it made sooo much more sense. The whole idea of a fourth trimester and keeping baby as comforted and close to mom as possible really appealed to me.

I would definitely check it out.
Me too. HBOTB was great. I would recommend it to anyone.
Someone gave us the book when DD was born. Some of the techniques were useful, but we found a lot of overlap with our tips people/nurses/etc. had given us, and we didn't find we had a need for the whole "method".

I loved it with DD.
If nothing else, it gives great tips and a how-to on swaddling (with I REALLY struggled with until I read this.)
100% ditto.
