Review title: If you have a Phd, you probably sell a lot of books...
Product review: Dr. Jodi Mindell's complete lack of real practical awareness in this subject is pretty apparent. This is typical of many other 'expert' advisors, a brief look around at parenting forums yield an obvious fact; there is NO reliable sleep pattern from child to child. Most parents are of course, desperate to get some kind of normal sleep from a baby, and most parents will use ANY tecnique to feel as though they are able to do something about it. Take this book as a fifty-fifty prospect that it will HAPPEN to work. Consider yourself blessed if you have a child that sleeps through the night, it's partly what you do in a routine, but it's also the child. My son's pediatrician calls it right every time we have a question about his sleep; she says unwaveringly that beyond a fixed routine of ANY kind, and obviously an environent condusive to sleep, it's up to your child how much sleep they get.
