Title: In some ways seriously out-dated
Review: The first 7 chapters of this book were wonderful, even tear invoking. However, after the chapter on rhythms, it was all down hill. I was so disappointed to read the section on co-sleeping. I also realize that the book was written a decade ago, however the information regarding the length of time to breastfeed was sad. Here is what the World Health Organization has to say about the length of time for breastfeeding, it is a quote directly from their website. "exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life is the recommended way of feeding infants, followed by continued breastfeeding with appropriate complementary foods for up to two years or beyond." In the book she is advocating the baby be weaned BY one year of age. Very sad. I would recommend this book for the first few chapters but after that, toss it aside, or resell it or let someone else read it. WARN them that other information in it is NOT up to date.
