North Dakota Babies

DVD or Book

I remember the majority of you girls preferring one version of "The Happiest Baby on the Block" over the other.

Which was it again? 

TIA!

Re: DVD or Book

  • We saw some clips from the video at one of our classes which prompted us to buy the book.  I don't think I would have sat down at home and watched an entire DVD of it.  But that's just me.  We bought the book and referred back to it quite a bit during the first several months.  My recommendation would be for the book.
  • Loading the player...
  • I liked the book, but the DVD was better for DH.
  • If you want I can email you the video, I have it on my computer.

    Ashley, that would be great.  Thank you!

  • I think the video was only half hour long.  And FWIW, none of those techniques worked for K.  Babies are so crazy.

    They certainly are, aren't they?  I can only hope SOME of the things I'm learning will work in some fashion.

  • They worked for us.  I read the book and Bri watched segments of the DVD on You Tube. 

  • Yep the video is only about 30-45 min long. And if nothing else teaches you a good swaddle. We just checked it out from our local library. I also read part of the book afterword and felt I was just a repeat.

    I was just talking to a friend about this book.  She said, "I am so glad I watched that movie and read the book.  I don't know what I would have done if I didn't know about those techniques."  Her baby is still swaddled when he's freaking  out, he's 6 months old.  It still works for her.

    Babies are so crazy.

  • DVD. The heartbeat section put K to sleep every night as a baby. LIFESAVER!
