Happiest Baby on the Block?

has anyone tried this? It seems like a gentler form of sleep training. If you've tried it, how'd it work?

    It's not sleep training as pp said, it's a method to soothe babies and make them feel safe and happy. It's about the 5 S's to calm babies. I think it works great.

    10/14 new local RE to look into what's next. CD3 FSH 4.7, AMH 0.9. Met with DE agencies and exploring options for feb/march 2015.

    Hasn't worked for either of my babies :/ Maybe I'm not doing it right or maybe my babies are just not cooperative :P First one was always screaming due to reflux that took a while to get under control and second has the most horrible gas ever though so that could be why as well...

    It always worked on my LOs. For us the swaddling with loud shhhs right in their ear was the only thing that would snap them out of a witching hour rage. They still had bad moments, but I think it's the best book on explaining how to comfort infants.

    I've found it to be very helpful. Some nights I have to employ 4 of the 5 S's (she won't suck on a pacifier) to get my LO to calm down enough for bed. Definitely worth a shot if you're having issues.

    It's worked great for our baby. A combination of swaddling, shhhing, and sucking calms him right down.

    Works for my baby girl and I used to use it when I worked in the nursery at church. Never met a baby I couldn't calm down with the five S's

    We LOVE it. We don't even have a particularly unsettled baby but find these methods great for getting him down to sleep.

    Read the book and I use it on our baby. Especially the side hold on your legs wig the swaying legs/shushing/sucking combo. Works like a charm every time
