The Happiest Baby on the Block: The New Way to Calm Crying and Help Your Newborn Baby Sleep Longer

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.

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.

this book has some great ideas, but by the time I got it, my babies were almost 3 months old, and a little past some of the suggestions - seems to mostly address newborns up to 3 or 4 months.

At first I thought this book was just another one of those books. But then I started to try the different things it says in the book and started seeing results with my colicky baby. I just wish I read this book right after my baby was born. I didn't read it until she was 2 months old. I would recommend this book to anyone who has a colicky baby. It really works. I feel like I can bond with my baby like I wanted to now that I know what to do for her crying.

Dr. Karp's techniques are incredible. That being said, the DVD is actually slightly more useful than the book, because it demonstrates exactly how to calm your baby. We have been using his techniques for the past 3 weeks with a newborn and they truly are amazing. I would highly recommend the DVD unless you really want to read another book.
