I've officially given up on sleep books and am throwing in the towel. This will likely be the last one I pick up. There was nothing inherently wrong with the advice given here (another modified CIO approach to infant sleep) but I've realized that my little one will STTN when she's ready and that - for now - several wakings during the night is normal and okay (particularly as she is EBF and not yet eating solids).
In my opinion, western society is way too obsessed with this notion that a baby MUS...more

Recommends it for: Any parent with a child 5 years old or younger

Absolutely saved my sanity and helped my daughter to learn excellent sleeping skills.
I chose this book in a haze from the bookshelf at Borders one day after a major regression in my child's sleeping patterns left the whole family with basically no sleep for days. I was so tired that I was on the verge of a meltdown and there was no end in sight. I'd tried everything I could think of to help her sleep and nothing was working anymore.
The reason I grabbed 'Sleepeasy' is because the print was larg...more

Sleepeasy: worked better than expected. Promises almost all babies will be sleeping all night in 5 days or less, if parents follow the plan exactly. My baby dropped from 10 to 4 wakings the first night, and down to one waking the second night with a sleep stretch of 7 1/2 hours!
Ferber's method:increased night crying and number of wakings
Weissbluth's method: my baby cried and cried and then it didn't work longterm because my baby was still night nursing.

I wanted an easy solution to my son's sleeping issues. But this book didn't tell me anything I didn't already know or have already been doing. If anyone has a better suggestion on a book that will help me get through my son's dreaded rolling stage in the crib, and to wean him off his paci at night, please let me know. I'm so tired.

Really good advice and encouragement in a concise and easy-to-read format for parents working on their children's sleep.
I'm taking off a star because of the authors' slant towards mothers being the primary caregiver of their kids. I understand some families work this way, either by choice or due to tradition. Even if yours has a much more active dad in the picture, ignore the bias and just take the information and suggestions.
With travels and a move on our horizon, I'll definitely go back to thi...more

This had been recommended to me by several fellow parents who had used it as a guide for successfully 'sleep training' their babies. Of all the sleep resources available to exhausted parents, the consensus seemed to be that this one worked, so when we decided it was time to try to improve our baby's sleep habits, we decided to make this our bible. That was a good choice.
I read the first few chapters (which hold most of the key information) on a tough night, after a series of tough nights, when w...more

Sleep training is a battleground subject within the greater Mommy Wars. Is it cruel to let you child cry it out in any degree? Or is it the best way to healthier overall sleep for child and parent alike? Proponents of no-cry methods will obviously take issue with this book, but if you are already in the pro-sleep-training camp, I highly recommend this volume.
To my analytical mind, if you have decided sleep training is a necessary path, it makes most sense to take the difficult but short route r...more

Interesting concepts, some of which are worth trying. Not a lot of practical answers (probably because they want you to pay them for those). Really, really biased towards a husband and wife household where the child is in his nursery from day one (even though pediatric associations now recommend room sharing for the first 12 months).

It worked for us and our baby boy is sleeping through the night, so 5 stars!

Jun 28, 2017Jillian Zimmerman rated it really liked it

I used this sleep training style with our son, and it was difficult at first but truly did work! Consistency is key! I would definitely recommend this book to new parents.

This book made me feel like I am doing everything wrong and many of the suggestions just aren't possible to implement with my preverbal infant.

I can't recommend this book any more whole-heartedly or enthusiastically. If you're losing your mind from lack of sleep due to a miniature version of you, this book will help you solve that. We had tried reading a few other books but the methods seemed a little too draconian for our tastes. This book struck the perfect balance between crying it out and offering aid to your child, in the form of scheduled check-ins (with no contact whatsoever, just reassuring and encouraging words).
My wife &...more

Ironically, I finished reading this book in the middle of the night when my 8 month old was refusing to sleep.
The 4 stars is based on the writing and readability of the book. I haven't put the plans into practice yet. That's on the docket for the weekend.
Let me start by saying I am really not a fan of 'crying it out' or letting my lovely one cry and cry. However, none of the non-cry methods have worked with him. So I'm going to give this one a try. It promises results in less than a week for ni...more

this book is great! i have so many 'how to get your baby to sleep' books which are informative, but this book gives you a nuts and bolts plan that you can put into action. we recently encountered some problems with our daughter waking during the night...she had slept before but she is at a developmental fever pitch right now and i suspect also having a bit of separation anxiety. whatever the reason, she used to sleep and all of a sudden decided she wouldnt!

Recommends it for: sleep-deprived parents of toddlers

So, this is the only book that actually worked. For that, it should get 5 stars. :) The writing I can't star because, well, it isn't literature and it doesn't intend to be. A note of caution: I wouldn't do this with a baby younger than 12 months to whom you can't explain what's going to happen. I really loved the author's idea of making an own story book to explain the new rules at bedtime. That worked especially well for me and Fé.

This was the one book out of the 50 that I seemed to have read that got Leah to sleep through the night (finally) at 7.5 months old. It's great that is separates the advice into age groups so that if you are starting when your baby is 6 months or 3 years old, you know right where to start reading.

You can read my thoughts on how much I LOVED this book and how we sleep trained our son at this blog post: http://www.gailwernerphoto.com/sleep-...
All I will add is OH MY GOD IT REALLY WORKS.

I know everyone is different and different methods work for different families, but this book 100% worked for us and I would recommend it to anyone trying to sleep train. My 8 month old had started waking up almost every hour just to pacify himself to sleep on me, he would not sleep without being super fussy, squirmy, and cried multiple times a night. The VERY FIRST NIGHT we began the steps in this book, he cried for about 45 min before falling asleep (around 8pm). THEN HE SLEPT ALL NIGHT UNTIL...more

I read this book in the middle of what I think was a sleep regression. I needed a solution fast, and really appreciated how I only had to read about two chapters to understand the main points. Although this is essentially the cry it out method (not a fan) with designated check ins, I appreciated how the authors designated a section to crying and described is as a part of teaching your child the skill of sleeping. It managed to convince me to accept a little crying so as to not deprive my baby of...more

Very useful book for helping your little one get some rest. My wife and I are trying to get our little guy on a better sleeping schedule for everyone's sanity, and this book came highly recommended. It turns out that he's a bit young for these methods (he turned four months the day I finished it), but it's good to have read through it to get a sense of what works. No doubt we'll be returning to it, especially to the resources in the back of the book, if we decide to really ramp things up.

Saved our lives!
This book literally saved our lives. After implementing the Sleep Easy Solution our 10 month old was sleeping through the night in 5 nights. After night 1 he was able to put himself to sleep with minimal crying. It was like a miracle...the sleep deprivation had really taken a toll on us. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their baby’s sleep habits. I only wish we read it sooner!

I'm trying it out right now. He is already sleeping better and longer and it's only been 2 days. I like how the book really speaks to you as if you are a real person and they have real expectations for you.

Aug 30, 2018Cristina Bica rated it did not like it

Just another book on how to feel good about yourself while letting your child cry herself to sleep, alone in her room. And we call this a 'modern society'. No wonder we have so many fucked up people around.

Feb 01, 2018Angela rated it it was amazing

This guide is excellent. Short and to the point, without all the added fluff I find in most parenting books. It clearly lists what to do and how to do it, followed by custom recommendations to suit individual families. We followed this about a year ago and it worked!

Really good easy to read book with lots of tips on helping* your child sleep. Unfortunately they recommend sleep learning to begin at 4months and 14lbs. So I still have two months to wait until I can utilize their tips.

Nov 06, 2017Victoria rated it it was amazing

I appreciated that this book was easy to read and had specific steps. It also answers almost all of my questions. It was also the first thing that helped me get naps in order, as everything I read prior was too general. This book gave me the confidence to figure out a sleep schedule for my family.

Dec 05, 2017Cassi Frank rated it really liked it · review of another edition

Four stars only because it's one of the hardest things I've ever done. But this works even if you hate every minute of it. One week and our bedtime routine was my favorite time of day again. Snuggles and stories and lights out with no tears.

I've read two books now to help me with child rearing - 1 on potty training, and this one. The two common threads I've found? Absolute consistency and positive reinforcement (i.e., not losing your shit when your kid makes you want to lose your shit). Now if only that were easy.

Not much I didn’t know but I do like the charts for what to expect different ages to sleep and the night feeding weaning suggestion. I appreciate being told to work on night first and naps simultaneously. My baby is 3.5 months so I’m excited to try this in a couple weeks!

The Sleep Easy Solution Book

“You may be thinking, What if she’s emotionally damaged after crying? What if she never trusts me again? Your natural inclination is to just soothe her. And yet, you’ve been doing that—for weeks, months, or years—and that hasn’t helped her sleep. What’s more, the long-term effects of sleep deprivation are far worse than a few days of your child’s frustration in learning a new skill or accepting a new limit.” — 0 likes
