Wonderful Book & Fast Service!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I gifted this book to my sister, Aimee' (first time mom), and not only did it arrive the next day when I only paid for regular shipping, but it made all of baby's sleeping problems go away. Aimee' can now sleep through the night EVERY night. Using techniques in this book is like taking a sleeping pill... definitely a good thing for any mom out there!

Jo Frost does it again......she is great at what she does. She gives you all the info you need and writes it in ways that makes you feel like she is talking to you in person. I LOVED THIS BOOK. I recommended it to family members and friends that are expecting and those who are not.
Excellent Resource

This is an easy read, and a great resource for a mom (or dad) of a baby under 1 year. I would recommend this product to any first time mom or as a gift for a baby shower.
A God Send...wonderful book!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I just got this book a couple of weeks ago. Already I have implemented a feeding routine for my 3 month old. He is taking to it wonderfully. I have also read great advice on different issues, such as crying, nap times, etc. What is wonderful is that Jo breaks the age groups up so that you can tailor your parenting to that age group. I was so glad to recieve the book while he is still young, so that I may implement the different routines (feeding, sleep, play time) as he grows.
2nd time mom

I am a new second time mom and feel like this is my first child. This book shares so many helpful ideas for being a mom. I was reassured and given confidence by reading that a lot of the things I already do are suggested. This is a great book and I highly recommend it to everyone.
