Summary: Really Useful Book
Comment: I have used the techniques described in this book with both my children.

Of the several
sleep books I have read, I liked Pantley's the best for many reasons.

First, I really
like the fact that she is writing parent-to-parent, rather than as a credentialed "expert." />
I like her middle-of-the-road approach; I found her sleep solutions helpful in balancing my
needs with those of my babies.

I found the book well organized, in that it is
organized both by the baby's age as well as by feeding method (breast or bottle) and sleep location
(crib or parent's bed).

I particularly liked that Pantley presents a variety of
techniques to help baby sleep, rather than just one method.

Summary: Fabulous book!
Comment: This is a fabulous book! After much advice from other people who thought they knew the perfect
solution to help my son get to sleep, I discovered this book, read it and put it into practice. My
son now goes to sleep easily and usually sleeps through the night. I don't know how I got along
without this book! Easy to read and helpful "workbook" pages, too!

Summary: This Book Saved My Sanity
Comment: When my daughter was born, we noticed very quickly that she -- just like her Daddy had when he was
young -- liked to fight sleep. My husband and I didn't feel that letting her "cry it out" was the
best way to get her to sleep, but we didn't know what else to try. Exhausted from sleep deprivation
and worried that I would never be able to convince my little princess that sleep is a good thing, I
was at my wits' end. I heard about the No-Cry Sleep Solution in a Mommy and Me class at the
hospital, so I checked a copy out from the library and even sent an e-mail to Ms. Pantley. The tips
in the book and the kind and reassuring e-mail response I received from Ms. Pantley helped
immensely. Each person is different, so every suggestion offered in the book won't work for
everyone in every situation. However, there is a big enough variety of tips that something is bound
to work. I found several that helped my daughter go to sleep more easily. Different suggestions
work for my newborn son, who has a much more easygoing disposition. Recently, a co-worker of mine
was desperately looking for ways to get her new baby to sleep more easily -- without resorting to
the "crying it out" methods. I lent her my book, and she, too, has had great luck with the
suggestions in it. Her little one is sleeping much better and her own outlook has improved greatly.
Thanks, Elizabeth!

Summary: The answer to the nightmare of a child who won't sleep
Comment: I was despairing of the sleep issues that my daughter was suffering from but also down-hearted by
all the professional literature that advocated letting your child cry at bedtime or naptime. So I
thought to myself there must be a book out there that focuses on helping your child sleep without
crying being part of the process. And then I found Elizabeth Pantley's books which even had 'no-cry'
in the title which was very encouraging. The fantastic thing about these books (including 'The
No-cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Pre-schoolers') is that Pantley offers you a whole range of
solutions and you choose the one/ones best suited to you and your child. It was interesting to learn
the basics of how babies sleep, including their sleep cycles and the importance of naps. And
reassuring to discover that sleep issues in children are not uncommon. It was so refreshing to read
a book written by a mother of four and not just an academic or someone with many letters after their
name. If you are as sleep deprived as we were you will be pleased to know that the book is
fantastically well laid-out with many headings and sub-headings so that you can easily navigate the
text. When I bought the book, the first thing I did was sit down with a cup of tea, the book and a
notepad and I jotted down every option that we hadn't tried already (e.g. soothing music, getting
our daughter used to the crib by putting her in to play) and then systematically tried them out over
the following days. Take heart, somewhere in this book you will find the answers you are looking
for. Good luck!

Summary: A True Godsend...
Comment: I received this book as a gift and I absolutely love it!!! I love how the theory's are from a mom,
have scientific proof and they work. The book is very easy to read and understand, not like some
other books that it takes two passes through the entire book before it starts to sink in. At 8
months, my daughter is finally sleeping 9 hours a night, uninterrupted.(After about 6 weeks of
trying Elizabeth's Method.) This book eased my mind about a lot of misconceptions about sleep. I
have shared this book with many other moms and they were so intrigued that they also bought the book
themselves and have found success for their children. You will not be disappointed by this book!!!
For us and many of my friends it was a life saver. My only regret was that I did not read it before
my baby was born so I did not have to undo what had already been done, I could have used the
theories right off the bat!!!
