Lisa: Shame on me for writing this review not sooner.
I have three grown daughters and incorporated this with all of them. Even with nursing, and no strict schedule, I was able to get them to sleep through the night extremely early on in their lives. They were much happier babies with comfortable and nourished tummies, and so well rested. I was able to have some normalcy in life because of knowing when their naps were and for other reasons.
Not only that, the author had so many other wonderful concepts, that we incorporated: such as couch time for the mom/parents, playpen time for the baby,... So many other great things. I even found a babyWise consultant whom I would email on occasion, giving me insights when it was time to change their schedule and more.
Nursing Moms, please resist from trying to get so much done while baby is sleeping. Your milk supply will get so low by the end of the day. Your mothers milk tea will do what closing your eyes and resting will do, to keep your milk supply up. And drink tons of water.
God bless you and your baby! Also, don’t forget to get babyWise 2 6-12mo), toddler, wise, etc. I have nothing connected to author of book. Just been...

JoJo: It’s my go to gift for mums to be. I referred back to it constantly depending on her ages in months. So specific with sleep calendars I followed to the tee and it worked. I first listened to it on audible while I was pregnant with en used it as a reference in book form.

Val: Habe von diesem Buch erst erfahren, als mein Sohn 6 Wochen alt war, aber es hat trotzdem geholfen. Mit 2,5 Monaten hat er zuverlässig durch die Nacht geschlafen. Außnahmen weswegen ein Kind im ersten Jahr Nachts immer wieder wach wird, gibt es natürlich reichlich und die muss man dann locker sehen. Aber das Prinzip schlafen - essen - spielen/wach sein funktioniert und mit der Zeit verlängern sich die Zeiten und Mahlzeiten schaffen sich von ganz alleine ab und Schlafenszeiten werden zusammengelegt und verlängert.
Alles super und nach nun über 2,5 Jahren mit den Erfahrungen und 3 erfolgreichen Weiterempfehlungen an Freunde kann ich sagen, das Prinzip ist Gold wert und funktioniert.

B. Elliott: We first read & used this book 18 years ago. Two wonderful, well-adjusted, well-nourished daughters later, I can tell you that it definitely works (and all of our friends that have used it rave about it, too). I just bought another copy to give to a newly-expecting friend and felt the need to post this review after reading some of the other reviews.
"It's nothing but common sense." -- Maybe for a few, but there are a number of things in the book that go against what might seem natural (how to get your baby to sleep without constant soothing; to get your baby to sleep in their own room instead of having them in your room or even in your bed; the proper sleep, eat, play cycle).
"It's dangerous!" -- Not in the least, although we didn't follow every last thing in the book.
"Your baby will be malnourished; they need to eat at night." -- Yes, infants do need to eat at night. Babywise is NOT about attempting to get your baby to sleep through the night, but rather to get to sleep by themselves (with the reassurance that you're there if they really need something -- process described in the book). When it's developmentally appropriate for your baby to sleep through...

Ily: Do cinque stelle per la consegna come al solito impeccabile di Amazon e per come me ne hanno parlato bene delle mamme di miei pazienti (sono una pediatra). Per conto mio ho appena iniziato il libro che mi sembra ben fatto e concepito con razionalità m, tuttavia devo ancora andare avanti nella lettura (e poi eventualmente testarlo sulla seconda figlia in arrivo) per poter esprimere un giudizio sull’efficacia del metodo

Zachary G.: I ordered this book so that my wife and I could be prepared for the birth (and sleep!) of our first born child. Let me start by stating that I have not read other books on the art of sleep training infants; Baby Wise is merely one method that my wife and I have found success with. Let me also say that Baby Wise may not work for you, so I would encourage parents to find what method works for you. However, I would also encourage parents to find a method that ensures that your child will sleep through the night from an early age. This is for the parents sake and the child's, as numerous studies have shown that both parents and children function better when baby is sleeping well. So find a good system that your child can thrive in with regards to sleep.
Baby wise is an outstanding book for getting your infant to sleep through the night, and from an early age to boot! The book offers several helpful tips and guidelines for using the Baby wise system. One very helpful chapter is chapter two: feeding philosophies. My, was this chapter eye opening. Being a male, I was totally unaware of the various breast feeding philosophies and techniques out there. Chapter two enlightens the reader...
