A safe, proven, and straightfoward way to a sound night's sleep—for babies and their parents

For many growing families, newborn sleep is the holy grail—much-discussed, highly sought after, and frustratingly out of reach. This book is the first guide to present a simple, attainable sleep program for newborns shortly after coming home from the hospital. Developed by two veteran pediatricians, the "Jassey Way" boasts a more than 90% success rate of getting children to sleep through the night in their first four weeks of life. Their tested method uses a feeding schedule that allows newborns (and their parents) to get a full night's sleep at a younger age than other sleep training techniques.

With clear guidance and real-life stories, The Newborn Sleep Book presents detailed advice for both breast-fed and formula-fed babies, dispelling myths about the frequency of feedings, "crying it out," and other essential topics. The book also offers tips for creating an environment that fosters sleep, including swaddling, the use of pacifiers, lighting, and more.
