So helpful for the first few months of parenthood! Our childbirth educator, Penny Simkin, told us about the 5 S's in class, but it's worth it to read the whole book. Dr. Karp's tone is friendly and non-judgmental. This is one I'd recommend to all new parents.

Yep. Parenting books are a thing I read now. There were a lot of things I want to try....but of course I feel this book (and frankly any self help/instructional book) should say.... Your child is uniquely them. Some things will work. Others will not....like Audrey does not like being swaddled.

Still, I read it cover to cover. Hence counting it ;)

The soothing techniques described in this book are top notch. I have a not-quite-three month old, and we've been using these techniques since she was born. I read the book to see if I could pick up some more advanced tips than the ones I had gotten in a baby care class I had taken and from my husband's summary of the book. While there were one or two good tips, for the most part having had the summary version was enough.

That's why I'm only giving this book three stars. As a set of soothing tips, it's worth 5/5. As a book, it's somewhat repetitive and padded.

I've also heard that the DVD is better since you can see the techniques demonstrated and it has less repetition, so that may be worth considering if you're interested in learning the 5 S's for calming a fussy baby.

This book offers good recommendations and I’ve enjoyed the main theory. However, I consider it to long and repetitive.
The same ideas are written with the exact same words all over the book resulting in a very annoying piece of literature.
