| This book should be handed out to every new mom at the hospital. Fantastic detailed information that doesn't leave you hanging. Step aside Hogg, this man is the true baby whisperer.
I would highly recommend for all moms, first,second, third.... My mom and I read it together while helping my 2nd through his first 3 months. She raised 4 kids, helps with 8 grandkids and was a neonatal nurse for 10 years. She was blown away by his wonderful techniques too. My son would have been labeled colic, but instead I had tools to use and made it through with my sanity. Even if your baby does not have colic, you'll appreciate the techniques at 2am. Thanks Dr. Karp! Now when will he write one about husbands... | |

| As first time parents, my husband and I were inexperienced and never even fed, changed a diaper, or held a baby/toddler until our daughter's birth. We found it more confusing and frustrating when her colic began at 2 weeks of age and lasted until she was 2.5 months old. Camalai cried 9 hours a day; 3 hours in the morning, 3 in the late afternoon, and 3 more in the late evening. We exhausted ourselves by driving her around at 2am, bouncing with her on the couch, etc...but nothing worked. We consulted our pediatrician and found that she was just as baffled as we were at Camalai's random ear-piercing wails, stiff posture, and clenched fists. The physician prescribed colic drops for my strong-willed daughter that, upon PDR and internet research, had the potential to be lethal to our baby in many ways. My mother then brought home Dr. Karp's book and when I remembered watching his appearance on Dr. Phil while I was pregnant with Camalai, I immediately began reading. Camalai continued to cry several times each day, but with the 5 S's, we were able to immediately calm her which limited her 9 hour crying jags to 2 or less hours per day. My husband and I no longer felt confined to our home on weekends due to Camalai's embarrassing tantrums and we suddenly remembered that sleep wasn't just a 5 letter word. Camalai immediately began sleeping longer when we swaddled her at night and I found that the loud shhhh's quickly calmed her screams when combined with a few of Dr. Karp's other techniques. This book is truly a breatkthrough in child rearing! It helped to restore the faith I lost in myself as a new mother. I was grateful to read that colic is not a byproduct of my parenting skills. Camalai is now 8 months and I've received compliments on the open-mouthed, toothless grins she gives strangers who even glance in her direction. Dr. Karp's book was a blessing to my family. Our little girl IS "The Happiest Baby on the Block." From the bottom of our hearts, Thank You Dr. Karp! | |
