Recommended by my boss at Organic, I downloaded this book (thanks to the iPhone Kindle app) to read during my nightly breastfeedings. It totally appeals to my numbers, stats and science mindset… and also my love for recipes. Which may sound weird but I look at this book as a nice guide for making something like a good pasta bolognese only it’s a recipe for a healthy sleeping child. Mix 3 naps a day with an early bedtime and top off with naps in a dark quiet room and voilà!! Only I also understand (like good pasta bolognese) that creative substitution and personalization is required… I am not sure Simon’s bedtime will ever be 6 pm, but I can still try and give him consistency as early as possible.
Anyway, not sure if any of these techiques will work. But just the fact that the book talks about how 4-8 weeks is the fussiest and most frustrating time and why that is… makes me feel WAY better about my current situation with an irregular and increasingly fussy newborn.
