In perhaps the most important parenting book of the decade, Dr. Harvey Karp reveals an extraordinary treasure sought by parents for centuries --an automatic “off-switch” for their baby’s crying. No wonder pediatricians across the country are praising him and thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Pierce Brosnan, have turned to him to learn the secrets for making babies happy. Never again will parents have to stand by helpless and frazzled while their poor baby cries and cries. Dr. Karp has found there IS a remedy for colic. “I share with parents techniques known only to the most gifted baby soothers throughout history …and I explain exactly how they work.” In a innovative and thought-provoking reevaluation of early infancy, Dr. Karp blends modern science and ancient wisdom to prove that newborns are not fully ready for the world when they are born. Through his research and experience, he has developed four basic principles that are crucial for understanding babies as well as improving their sleep and soothing their senses: ·The Missing Fourth Trimester: as odd as it may sound, one of the main reasons babies cry is because they are born three months too soon. ·The Calming Reflex: the automatic reset switch to stop crying of any baby in the first few months of life. ·The 5 “S’s”: the simple steps (swaddling, side/stomach position, shushing, swinging and sucking) that trigger the calming reflex. For centuries, parents have tried these methods only to fail because, as with a knee reflex, the calming reflex only works when it is triggered in precisely the right way. Unlike other books that merely list these techniques Dr. Karp teaches parents exactly how to do them, to guide cranky infants to calm and easy babies to serenity in minutes…and help them sleep longer too. ·The Cuddle Cure: the perfect mix the 5 “S’s” that can soothe even the most colicky of infants. In the book, Dr. Karp also explains: What is colic? Why do most babies get much more upset in the evening? How can a parent calm a baby--in mere minutes? Can babies be spoiled? When should a parent of a crying baby call the doctor? How can a parent get their baby to sleep a few hours longer? Even the most loving moms and dads sometimes feel pushed to the breaking point by their infant’s persistent cries. Coming to the rescue, however, Dr. Karp places in the hands of parents, grandparents, and all childcare givers the tools they need to be able to calm their babies almost as easily as…turning off a light. From the Hardcover edition. |

 Written on August 25, 2008 Summary: No new news I was disappointed in this book. All it has to offer are the 5 s's which don't take up a whole book to understand. Additionally, if you've taken a child birth class you were most likely taught the 5 s's. Not worth the money. Very wordy and low on information.  Written on August 24, 2008 Summary: Great book for newborns I bought this book with a bunch of other books, I'm due in two months so I haven't actually tried any of Dr. Karps techniques but the book was super easy to read, and had some really interesting techniques that I'm dying to try now! :-) I would definitely recommend this book to anyone, especially for first time parents. Written on August 21, 2008 Summary: GREAT BOOK Seriously this book helped me more than I can describe. I'm in the military and just randomely picked this book up at one of our exchanges. When she was born I resorted to it on several occasions. I read it a lot and my husband couldn't figure out why I knew so much already. It teaches you MULTIPLE solutions to a crying baby!! I PROMISE IF YOU ARE A FIRST TIME MOM THIS BOOK IS MAJIC!!! I really hope you take my advice.. I would reccommend it any day!! Written on August 1, 2008 Summary: Shower Present We make swaddling blankets and give a copyof the book as baby shower gifts or as welcome baby home. It makes for a happier baby and parents. Sandy Written on July 26, 2008 Summary: I slept for the first time in weeks My son is not a colicky baby, but he isn't a sleeper either. Although I tried to put him on a schedule he just wouldn't sleep during the day, and he'd only sleep for a few hours at night. When I tried to lay him down for a nap he would shriek, as if in pain. Many of my friends ended up putting there babies on there stomachs to sleep but I just didn't want to do that. The only way he would sleep for an extended period of time was if he was in the swing, but I felt guilty for letting him sleep in the swing, as if I was getting him addicted to something. Last night after reading some of this book I swaddled him, put on a cd of ocean sounds and put him in his swing, he slept for 8 hours (he's 7.5 weeks old). He's also been taking naps between feeding for the first time! I don't worry that he'll be addicted to the swing(because I know he's in the 4th trimester as explained in the book) and I'm now able to do housework and spend time with my husband. This book is absolutely wonderful, and I only wish that I had read it sooner. |
