Book description
Sleep, or rather the lack of it, is the issue of paramount concern to
the overwhelming majority of new parents. Getting enough sleep is
vital for the health of a growing baby or toddler, and the sanity of
mums and dads. Yet striking the right balance between their differing
needs can be hard to achieve. Once sleep problems set in, they can
fast demoralise and exhaust parents, undermining confidence in their
ability to cope.
Gina Ford has come to the rescue with her answer: the key to a good
night's sleep for the whole family lies in teaching parents to
understand the changing sleep needs of their growing baby. This book
informs and reassures parents, dispelling many common myths and
anxieties and offering practical solutions that work.
By creating a structure of regular feeding, sleeping and playing
times, Gina explains how parents can help their baby to find a rhythm
that will be comfortable for all concerned. Whether parents want to
establish good sleeping habits from the start, or find they need to
cure sleep problems and get their child back on track, Gina has the answers.
