Get better sleep for the whole family--from birth--with gentle,
proven tips, tools, and techniques from The Sleep Lady(R)
Sleep training isn't recommended until your baby is 6 months old, but
that doesn't mean you're powerless to help them (and you) sleep better
now.
For the past three decades, Kim West, known around the world as The
Sleep Lady(R), has personally helped over twenty thousand families
gently teach their children how to fall asleep--and fall back
asleep--without leaving them to cry it out alone.
Now, in The Sleep Lady(R)'s Gentle Newborn Sleep Guide, she offers
gentle, evidenced-based ways to help newborns (and parents) get to
sleep! Understand action steps you can take and learn myths you can let
go of with easily digestible chapters you can follow along monthly.
In month-by-month chapters that are easily digestible (even in the
middle of the night!), West and her Gentle Sleep Team share:
-
How feeding, attachment, soothing, and temperament all factor into
your infant's sleep
-
The key developmental milestones from birth through five months and
how to encourage sleep at every stage
-
Safe co-sleeping guidelines--and clear answers around this hotly
debated topic
-
Success stories from real parents
-
Alternatives to the "cry it out" method for newborns, based on an
infant's developmental readiness to self-soothe
-
Plus, what parents need to know to make sure they're taking care of
themselves, too
It's easy to get overwhelmed by conflicting advice on sleep training,
nap coaching, sleep schedules, and more. The Sleep Lady(R)'s Gentle
Newborn Sleep Guide provides clear guidance and a safe haven free of
judgment, guilt, and criticism for parents seeking options that align
with their parenting values and beliefs.
Raising a newborn doesn't have to be a sleep-deprived nightmare. Trust
your instincts. Learn how to read and respond to your baby's cues with
confidence. And finally get a good night's sleep.
