Very comprehensive and I wish I read this sooner especially to prevent sleep regression!
Read this as I saw many reddit and Facebook posts recommending this book so glad I came across this! My biggest regret is not reading this sooner!!
All you get told is to start sleep training after 4-5 months or even 6 months and that is just a ‘phase’ but after trying gentler approaches for weeks and only getting worse you know it’s not just a phase and this ‘4 month regression’ is actually a permanent developmental change!
I thought I had time to read up on sleep training and waited to start any sleep training but we hit 4 mont regression early at 3 months and was surprised why I had done wrong! I did however start early putting my baby ‘drowsy but awake’ and I did try to establish routine early after reading books like the happiest baby on the block but hadn’t made the connection between 5S and sleep training and I feel like what I was doing was not enough in hindsight!
I feel this book really bridges the gap on all the other books and when to start self soothing not wait until 4-6 months! Early intervention actually makes a difference even the Weissblurg book also states babies who experience intervention before 4 months are more successful with sleep training.
I realised I could have started things earlier to lessen the impact of the 4 months regression which was really tough and being sleep deprived there is a balance between how many volumes of books or googling you can get through while trying to get some eyes shut!
Some of the content on how to do sleep training is a little brief but I had already did the course on Sleep 101 on Tinyhood which was comprehensive on how to do modified graduated/Ferber approach so for me I was okay with it and other books like happiest baby is also very brief on this. I found the Weissblurg book which is on extinction very comprehensive in answered my further questions on nap scheduling etc.

There is no such thing as gentle sleep training
I bought this as a new mother who had yet to learn that it was okay to cuddle my baby to sleep. I started this book and realized there is no gentle way to “sleep train” your baby and biologically normal infant sleep is perfectly healthy. New mums … do your research first. You don’t have to do this.
