Title: Reading this book was the worst mistake I made as a new mom
Product review: If you have a colicky baby than this book will make you feel like it is your fault and that your baby "shouldn't" be crying this much. HA! I borrowed and read this book from a friend in an attempt to help soothe myself and my son. I tried wearing my son in a front carrier for a few days all day long. He hated it and cried all the time. I tried the family bed for a few nights and almost suffocated my 4 week old son (thank Goodness I woke up to his squirming), not to mention that I was now getting almost NO sleep instead of a little sleep. My pediatrician's advice was contrary to Dr. Sears and now I know why. This book is based on Dr. Sear's opinion on what babies need and not any scientific data. With a colicky baby, nothing presented in this book will help soothe your baby, even though he says it will. All that reading this book did was make a bad situation worse for my husband, my son and myself.
