Review title: bad advice
Product review: In retrospect, I should never have tried the methods outlined in this book. My son cried for 4 hours straight for 3 nights, often making himself throw up in the process. He absolutely refused to lie down, so periodically fell asleep standing up holding the crib rail, and waking up when his knees buckled. Our relationship over the next few weeks suffered tremendously, and his behavior became intolerable. I read this book on my doctor's advice, and feel very strongly that it should not be recomended. I now sit or lie down with my son to send him off to sleep, often reading or online, and my presence comforts him. After reading much of the Dr. Sears parenting series, I practice many of the attachment parenting strategies for sleep and discipline, and I have found that our relationship has just kept improving. I can' help but feel guilty for taking bad advice and watching my son cry for hours. I strongly recommend that others try the Dr. Sears methods.
