Book Reviews of Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child

Book Review: Too harsh
Summary: 1 Stars

I was looking for solutions for transitioning my 10 month old from the family bed to the crib. I had hoped this book would address it. It didn't. The author's philosophy seems to be a watered down version of "crying it out." I would not recommend it to parents who don't believe in letting their baby cry it out.
