Fantastic book- one tip

Like everyone says- this is a must have. Our daughter was colicy- until 2 months old- which is when we found her calm trigger. We thought this only sort of worked and were pacing and jiggling and shushing, but it only brought it down once and a while. TIP: like the author says be louder than the baby so they can hear you. We found the blow dryer! For our son, we only turn on the monitor's reciever and the feedback is perfect. It is like a switch. Angry to cooing or sleeping in less than a minute. :) Enjoy your baby!

GREAT book

I have a 2 week old infant and was given this book by a friend. I was skeptical at first, but after trying his methods on a fussy baby (the 5 S's) I swear I want to write the author myself and tell him how much I appreciate his insight. My infant does not seem to have colic, (yet), but the methods work for even just fussy spells. It saved me a great deal of frustration and saved my baby a great deal of grief. He is sleeping peacefully right now thanks to this book. Definitely worth purchasing and reading.

Invaluable reference

I have a content newborn, no colic, but whenever a baby cries for seemingly no reason, as all do, you want an immediate, consistent solution, and this book provides that solution in five easy-to-implement steps. My whole family has learned the steps from watching us interact, and our daughter benefits from it as much as we do.

The book is written in an engaging manner, sometimes a little repetitively, however. Occasionally the referenced "science" seems more anthropological, but the anecdotes are interesting, and if it works, it works. Helpful book, recommended by my childbirth instructor, and I would recommend it wholeheartedly to any new or exhausted parent.

Thank You Dr. Karp!

This book helped us to keep our sanity during our baby's evening 'troubles'. We thought this was a unique problem. The techniques worked right away and are easily applied. I only wish someone had given this to us as a shower gift.
