Suzy Giordano, affectionately known as "The Baby Coach," shares her highly effective sleep-training method in this step-by-step guide to let both baby and parent enjoy long, peaceful nights. Full of common sense and specific tips, the Baby Coach's plan offers time- and family-tested techniques to help any baby up to the age of 18 months who has trouble sleeping through the night. Originally developed for newborn multiples, this sleep-training method worked so well with twins and triplets that families with singletons and older babies began asking Suzy to share her recipe for success, resulting in: regular feeding times; 12 hours' sleep at night; three hours' sleep during the day; peace of mind for parent and baby; and less strain on parents-and their marriage. This edition includes a new chapter on implementing the program with babies up to 18 months. |

 Written on June 22, 2008 Summary: This program doesn't deserve a bad rap; use your common sense! I have 4 month old spontaneous triplets and they all sleep through the night! They are all happy and thriving (born at 34.4 weeks and 5 pounds each, they are now over 12 pounds), and are on a schedule that works for our family; and anyone with multiples knows you need to have a schedule! I owe most of my sanity to this book. It's lovely to live the fat life with one baby, feeding and napping on demand for 6 months, but it's just not possible with newborn triplets and a 23-month-old. This book helps you encourage your baby's natural tendencies, which is hard to remember how to do when you're running on 3 hours of sleep a day. This program, while it seems strict for the parent who doesn't want to "hurt baby's feelings", does work. I breast fed and pumped in the beginning, but feeding 7 times a day for 2 hours a feeding is much less realistic than this program. When my babies came home from the NICU at 2 weeks old, they were already on an every-3-hours feeding schedule. This book recommends an every-4-hours feeding schedule, right up until bedtime, as long as your newborn is taking 24 ounces in 24 hours; you're not supposed to even start the program until your baby consumes this much nourishment. Once they reach this mark you can start to wean them off thier nighttime feedings, which is hardly torture. As your baby grows they will need (and demand) more at each feeding and eventually, be able to eat 6 ounces 4 times a day (24 ounces). You're merely consolidating feedings so that you're not spending half your day feeding babies. Anyone with even a shred of common sense would realize that while the program is very regimented, you should take your time and listen to your baby's cues. You can, of course, vary the steps to fit your baby's and your current schedule over a longer period of time, if that's what it takes, without throwing off the rest of the program. For instance, triplets are not allowed to start training until they are 12 weeks old; at 16 months we are finished the feeding training and just starting the sleep training, but our babies are already showing thier natural tendencies to sleep through the night. I recommend this book to all parents. Read it with an open mind and don't lose your motherly intuiton and common sense and it can work for you.  Written on June 14, 2008 Summary: Must-Have for Multiples I do not think I could have done it without this book. I was a new mother, to twins no less, and hadn't a clue. After reading this book during one of their naps, I was able to plan out my own schedule when they were 14 weeks old. By 16 weeks they stuck to it! After five months, when another woman down my street also had twins, I relinquished my copy of the book to help her. My twins are now 10 months old, still on schedule, sleeping about 12 hours a night, 2 hours in the morning, and 1 hour in the afternoon. Every where we go I get comments about how good they both are. I smile and thank them, but deep down I know it's because the scheduling has definitely worked for me and especially for them. Written on May 30, 2008 Summary: Mother of twins I'm a new mother of twins. I tried this book because a friend told me about it. I works for both of my babies, first one baby was sleeping 12 hours and a week later the other one was too. Written on May 6, 2008 Summary: This does work if you approach it with an open mind. My husband and I struggled with how to best help our son in his first months. He was a colicky baby who just could not get comfortable sleeping more than an hour at a time. It got to the point where the circles under his eyes rivaled mine! Our pediatrician told us that another of her families had met in person with Suzy Girodano and had nothing but positive things to say. I read her book when our son was 4 months old, but had the initial reaction of several reviewers that it was "cruel" to schedule a baby's feedings as she describes and not compatible with nursing. The 6 month mark hit, and our son was doing better, but still sleeping for 4 hour stretches at the most, with at least 2, sometimes 3 night wakings. We had to do something for the sake of our entire family. I called Suzy and were able to get her to come to our house for a consult. Prior to her arrival our nighttime ritual consisted of feeding him in his nursery with the lights off, letting him feed until he fell asleep in our arms, and with the precision of a neurosurgeon attempt to move him into his crib without waking him. Some nights it worked, others he woke up and screamed. Suzy's key point to us was that by putting him in his crib asleep we weren't allowing him to soothe himself to sleep. She had us feed him in another room with lights on, and then put him to bed awake. The first few nights were rough - because I was nursing him, our son had grown accustomed to falling asleep in my arms and having me nurse him when he woke up 2X a night. Our new routine started with nursing him in the living room, followed by my husband putting him to bed. We had about 10 minutes of crying the first night where my husband would go in and rub his tummy after our son had cried for 2 minutes. The next night we still had some crying, but significantly less. By the 3rd night he went to his crib without a peep. The first night our son woke up 3-4 hours after we put him to bed. My husband went in and did the same soothing routine, and again when he woke up the 2nd time during the night. We had about 3 days of 2 middle of the night wakings, followed by 4 days of one waking, and then after that he slept upwards of 9-10 hours a night. Now, if for some reason he wakes up in the middle of the night (which only happens these days if he is teething) I can go to him and soothe him just as easily as my husband. I have given this book to at least 3 or for new parents, and after reading it and meeting with Suzy I can honestly say that this is the best method for us. I tried Dr. Weisbluth's book and method, The Baby Whisperer, The Sleep Lady - I read more books on infant sleep while our son was nursing at 2AM than I care to admit! This method works if you are willing to give it a try and take the approach to make it work for you and not feel bound by the "rules" It takes 3 nights to create a bad sleep habit and 10 nights to break it. Give it time and it will work! "12 Hours Sleep By 12 Weeks Old" along with "The Happiest Baby on the Block" got us through some dark days during our first few months. Now, with a 14 month old who sleeps 11 hours at night and naps 2-3 hours a day I finally know what can reasonably be achieved and what a joy it is to parent when you are not sleep deprived! Written on April 4, 2008 Summary: Buy this book! It's great! I want to shout it from the rooftops! After 9 weeks of sleep deprivation, I bought this book and by the time my baby was 11 weeks old she was sleeping all night. This book taught me so much, about how to organize my days with my baby, how to set up a schedule for feeding, and basically how to take control of my new life as a parent. It is so hard to make decisions and function when you are sleep deprived. I need sleep! I exclusively breastfeed, though while I was "training" her, I did pump milk and give her bottles. It was more for me than for her, really. In hindsight I think it would have worked just as well if I had just offered the breast. I have read the reviews that say this won't work, it's not enough food, this is cruel, etc. But if you could see my baby! She is so fat! And it's not cruel, it's very gradual and shows you how to gently but surely nudge your baby into a practical schedule. My baby loves her routine, it helps her know what is going on every day and more importantly it takes a lot of the guesswork out for me - "Why is she crying? Well, it's not nap time yet, and she usually eats at this time, so she is probably hungry.." The author also gives a lot of helpful advice, words of wisdom, which have stuck in my head and I find myself thinking of them frequently. If you are sleep deprived with your new baby, do yourself and your family a favor and buy this book, TRY IT, you will be very happy! |
