Why is My Baby Crying? : The 7-Minute Program For Soothing the Fussy Baby

Rating:
Summary: This book is a miracle. The technique really works.
Review: I bought this book 11 years ago when my son was born. I credit this book with my son never developing "colic". When he cried, we quickly went through the list of needs the book describes and he, without fail, stopped crying. Funny, turns out he was mostly hungry when I was "sure" he could not possibly be, but he was. I give this book to every friend that has a newborn and they all agree, it saved them from lots of crying. If your new baby is having long crying episodes, get this book immediately. It will save your sanity and because you can meet the needs of your crying baby, you will develope confidence in your parenting skills.

Summary: Thank You Dr. Taubman
Review: This book is amazing. Dr. Taubman really makes the advice practicle and uses common sense. This is something we all have but when our infant is screaming and will not stop, you often do not use. Sometime an emotional parent needs to here / read the obvious. Then, Dr. Taubman builds on it with practile advice you can really use and implement

He even addresses topics like sleeping through the night which really helped me get my middle child to sleep more than 2 hours.

Summary: Don't waste your money...
Review: This book offers flow charts that attempt to complicate a simple process: Your baby is crying because it is wet, hungry, tired, needs to suck,or needs stimulation. The author attempts to put into a book those things which are common sense - if you try to sooth your baby one way, and your attempt is not successful, try something else.

Also, the author apparently subscribes to the Attachment Parenting philosophies, and therefore offers very biased suggestions to soothing techniques to be used. He leaves out other methods that can work.
