Dr. Harvey Karp is famous for his brilliant insights into centuries-old parenting problems and for discovering breakthrough solutions that are simple ...practical ...and fast working.

In The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep, he works his magic once again on the Number One complaint of new parents. The bone-deep fatigue that parents experience when their children sleep poorly is not just a nuisance - it can be a very serious problem. Sleep deprivation can provoke depression, illness, marital conflict, and even obesity. A flood of sleep misinformation and contradictory messages have left parents more confused than ever: Hold your baby, but don't spoil her! Swaddle your baby, but don't let him get dependent on it!

Based on Dr. Karp's thirty years as a pediatrician and child development specialist, The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep reveals groundbreaking new ideas to prevent or cure most sleep problems in children under five years old, including: how to adjust a baby's schedule to reduce day sleep and boost night sleep within the very first weeks of life; how to use sleep cues like swaddling; how to defuse bedtime struggles and help your toddler fall asleep faster using a novel sleep training approach called twinkle interruptus.

Dr Karp's surprising insights include:

• Why parents should always wake their sleeping babies when they ease them into bed
• How a new type of white noise can boost your baby's or toddler's sleep by 1 - 2 hours
• Easy 'no-cry' tips that end infant and toddler struggles in just days!

Plus dozens more foolproof tips that have helped thousands of families turn night-time shrieks into night-long slumber. Finally, kids do come with instructions - surprisingly simple steps to boost your little child's sleep fast! .
