Average Customer Ratings:
In perhaps the most important parenting book of the decade, Dr. Harvey Karp reveals an extraordinary treasure sought by parents for centuries --an automatic “off-switch” for their baby’s crying.
No wonder pediatricians across the country are praising him and thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Pierce Brosnan, have turned to him to learn the secrets for making babies happy.
Never again will parents have to stand by helpless and frazzled while their poor baby cries and cries. Dr. Karp has found there IS a remedy for colic. “I share with parents techniques known only to the most gifted baby soothers throughout history …and I explain exactly how they work.”
In a innovative and thought-provoking reevaluation of early infancy, Dr. Karp blends modern science and ancient wisdom to prove that newborns are not fully ready for the world when they are born. Through his research and experience, he has developed four basic principles that are crucial for understanding babies as well as improving their sleep and soothing their senses:
·The Missing Fourth Trimester: as odd as it may sound, one of the main reasons babies cry is because they are born three months too soon.
·The Calming Reflex: the automatic reset switch to stop crying of any baby in the first few months of life.
·The 5 “S’s”: the simple steps (swaddling, side/stomach position, shushing, swinging and sucking) that trigger the calming reflex. For centuries, parents have tried these methods only to fail because, as with a knee reflex, the calming reflex only works when it is triggered in precisely the right way. Unlike other books that merely list these techniques Dr. Karp teaches parents exactly how to do them, to guide cranky infants to calm and easy babies to serenity in minutes…and help them sleep longer too.
·The Cuddle Cure: the perfect mix the 5 “S’s” that can soothe even the most colicky of infants.
In the book, Dr. Karp also explains:
What is colic?
Why do most babies get much more upset in the evening?
How can a parent calm a baby--in mere minutes?
Can babies be spoiled?
When should a parent of a crying baby call the doctor?
How can a parent get their baby to sleep a few hours longer?
Even the most loving moms and dads sometimes feel pushed to the breaking point by their infant’s persistent cries. Coming to the rescue, however, Dr. Karp places in the hands of parents, grandparents, and all childcare givers the tools they need to be able to calm their babies almost as easily as…turning off a light.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
I loved this book and it was a quick read. -
I enjoyed this book a lot. Now I just have to buy the dvd for my other half! You know he's not reading the book...

JUST GET THE DVD. - 
The book didn't really add much to the DVD. The DVD is worth every cent.
Must read for every expecting parent! -
This book should be compulsory for every expecting parent. It gives a completely fresh perspective on the early months of having a newborn, and Dr. Karp provides a nice counterbalance to many of the books on the market that tell you not to spoil your child and how to train them to sleep.
Reading this (unfortunately, only when my baby was already about 5 weeks) really changed my life and my perspective as a mother. My life, because it provided me the means to calm my fussy baby and help her sleep. My perspective, because it reinforced that some of the things that seemed natural to me -- holding her close a lot, wearing her, etc. -- were in fact good things, not bad habits that would need to be broken.
I stopped swaddling after about 3 months (she was too big and kicked it all off), and stopped some of the other S's around the same time or a bit later...and at 8 months (and for the past several months!), my baby sleeps calmly through the night, goes down peacefully at night, and is a very happy baby! People ask me all the time, "Is she always this happy?" and I can confirm, I have the happiest baby on the block!
Fantastic Book till 3 months -
We loved this book! and DVD.
Only problem is we didn't realizes you must teach your baby to go to sleep on her/his own (you find that out only at the very very end of the book when it's a bit too late)
Once your baby turns 3 months she/he should be sleeping on their own 2-3 naps a day and through the night.
I highly recommend parents get this book but also get the book the "baby whisperer solves all your problems" by Tracey Hog her first book will only help before 3 months this one gives detailed explanations till toddler hood.
Good luck.

LOTS of wonderful info.....that WORKS! -
As a new mom sometimes you wonder if you are doing the right things with your baby, and one of the worst feelings is not being able to calm her when she is upset. Dr. Karp has really great information in this book. Its a easy easy read, and not only is it great info, his suggestions really do work. It amazing to be able to soothe your baby and also get a better understanding of life as a newborn. This book deserves 5 stars and more if I could give it.
