I only read the parts that I felt were related to my current child's age. In terms of sleeping, this was one of the better ones. It explained more of the science of sleep than others and it gave specific tips and schedules for you. However, -Weissbluth's tone is very self-satisfied. It's reminiscent of Babywise(do yourself a favor and google the Wikipedia page on that one) in some ways. He's also a fan of crying it and takes the position of "there aren't any studies that show the harm of crying it out" which is probably true, but are there any that prove a benefit? -He also seems to step outside of his expertise(why do they always do that?). Telling parents they need therapy doesn't really seem to connect to the sleep problem and fixing sleep will probably do more to fix the relationship, anyway. SAD doesn't really have much to do with sleep either. -Also... page 396 irritated me(I'm sleep-deprived). Blaming child abuse, infanticide, and obesity on parental mismanagement of sleep is not helpful to over-worked parents who are trying the best that they can. So, it wasn't a perfect book. But I hope it works. I picked Weissbluth's book up and I couldn't get past the negative tone -- every explanation and diagnosis is about "parental failure to X". I suspect there is useful information here, especially for people at the end of their rope, but it is couched in surprisingly dismissive language. I thought it was universally known to people involved in childrearing and with power over adults that narrating and normalizing positive replacement behaviors you want to see is more effective than focusing attention on misbehavior, but apparently that is less universal than I had thought. Not finishing this one. Gonna have to call it quits on this one. Dr. Weissbluth's writing is very repetitive, so much so that sometimes it's hard to dig the meaning out of any given passage. I found no information that would help me with my 5-month old's poor sleeping habits, and the many parental anecdotes were all variations on "I tried Dr. Weissbluth's methods and now my child sleeps perfectly!" with no practical advice. I'm currently reading Dr. Ferber's Solve Your Child's Sleep Problems and in comparison the latter is a much more informative and better-written book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
