I will very rarely write a review on amazon, but I feel I have to with this book. This book literally saved my husband and I as first time parents! I will recommend this to anyone who is pregnant or wants to be a parent.Our beautiful daughter arrived and turned our world upside down, we had no clue what we were doing. The advise in the happiest baby made us feel we weren't crazy, bad parents, or had some miserable baby. The tips given work, and our baby is thriving and sleeping and most importantly quick to calm.I will be buying the happiest toddler book that is for certain!

It’s a good book, simply written and contains a lot of useful information. Not everything in this book worked with my baby, but nonetheless was very helpful in learning the techniques to calm the baby down.

Good book with plenty of advice.

I gave birth on the 27th of april and i have practised all the 5's mentioned in the book. The baby is now in his nearly 3rd week and he already had a good sleep routine. I really recommend you this book. In my case, worked miracles.

Excellent advice in this book. Make sure you buy proper large square swaddling cloth to get the most out of the techniques. I bough 44" swaddles made out of muslin and they were perfect.

Finally a book that makes sense and supports a mothers intuition.I read this just after giving birth to my son and I now recommend it to any new parent or preggo friends.

A lot of needless information from studies. I don't have the time or even space in my brain to hold the lengthy info regarding what some studies have researched about swaddling and why baby cries. All the info could have been summed up.The book has aprox 300 pages. All the relevant info could have been written on 150pages.Somewhat waste of time

Five ‘s’s are very effective at calming a crying baby. We still don’t swaddle for sleep but the method is flexible.
