The Baby Whisperer Solves All Your Problems: Sleeping, Feeding, and Behavior--Beyond the Basics from Infancy Through Toddlerhood

by Tracy Hogg, Melinda Blau

Atria Books | January 3, 2006 | Trade Paperback

The third book in the bestselling Baby Whisperer series -- the most comprehensive, up-close, and personal to date!

Thousands of parents have asked the Baby Whisperer to help them solve their problems. With this book you too can take advantage of the advice, insights, and parenting techniques from beloved child expert Tracy Hogg. "A problem is nothing more than a situation calling for a creative solution," she reminds us. "Ask the right questions and you''ll come up with the right answers."

Once you learn how to translate banguage, the "baby-language" your infant uses to communicate needs, feelings, and opinions, you can see your child for who he or she really is -- an understanding that will serve you well as your child blossoms into the toddler years. By helping you establish a daily routine and tailor your parenting strategies according to your child''s unique personality and stage of development, Tracy will teach you how to:

• Ask the Twelve Essential Questions to recognize potential problems and employ the Twelve Principles of Problem Solving -- simple troubleshooting techniques for everyday situations

• Avoid, or remedy, accidental parenting -- inadvertent adult behavior that often leads to such common parenting challenges as sleep problems, poor eating habits, separation anxiety, and tantrums

• Be a P.C. parent -- patient and conscious -- who knows how to detect prime times -- windows of opportunity for teaching babies how to get to sleep on their own, introducing bottles to breast-fed babies, toilet training, and other growth issues

• Inhibit runaway emotions and foster his or her emotional fitness -- the ability to understand and manage feelings

...and so much more. For Tracy''s fans, this book will be a welcome addition to the Hogg library; for readers unfamiliar with her philosophy of care, it will open a new world of understanding and insight.

    A godsend!

    Ever wish babies came with a manual? This book IS that manual! Tracy has worked with thousands of babies, and she has a wonderful gift: she understands them. In this book, she takes you by the hand and guides you through issues such as feeding, sleeping, behavior, and much more. Her methods are extremely gentle and respectful of the baby/child. For example, she doesn't believe in letting babies cry it out. She encourages other more gentle methods to help babies learn to go to sleep on their own. Her methods have worked wonders for us and many other parents we know. No parent should be without this book.

    I loved this book, as a first time parent I needed guidance and this book gave me the ability to make it happen. My daughter has been on the same schedule since 4 months old and she is now almost 1.

    If you are having issues with your baby sleeping, this is a great book to start with. It may not solve all your problems but it's a great start. I certainly wished I had read it before the birth of my son instead of 6 months in. Definitely take her word that getting your baby on a schedule is very important!

    WOW! This book was great. I read many books and still did not find the answers I was looking for. This book helped me understand how to put my baby to sleep, helped him and I get on a schedule, and talked a lot about accidental parenting things that all parents do without knowing and how to correct this. I only wish I had read this before I had my son, not 2 months after he was born it would have made my life a lot easier. This will be my shower gift for any new mom!!!

    Most Helpful Book Ever

    As a new mom, I was given many books to read. This book is by far the most helpful I have ever read. It is because of this book, my daughter slept through the night by seven weeks, I knew roughly how often babies eat (at each age), and how to understand my baby, because every baby has a different personality with different needs. I buy this book for each of the people I know that are expecting. This book was a savior.

    This book was written about my baby! The section about the 4-6 month old is soooo helpful. We were ready to try anything and what we tried from this book made a world of difference! Our baby sleeps!

    Also, our toddler benefits from the guidance about tantrums.
    Yay!
