Pros & Cons
Pros
Harvey karp's book is a must-have for parents of fussy babies. The 5 s's are a must for a calm, contented baby. I think the first 4 months of our son's life were so peaceful because of this book.
Cons
Karp recommends swaddling, white noise, and a $1700 bassinet. The book claims that baby's love to be swaddled and have shooting sounds because that is what they felt in the womb.
Author tries to prove a point by repeating an analysis of her hypothesis of colic over and over, but the research it's there. Watch a youtube video about it instead. No, just google them.
Highlights
Quality
Can’t wait to try out these skills with the new babe
I got brownie points with the wife for ordering it so we can read it together
This book probably offers genuinely good advice but unfortunately the product plugging detracts from it a little bit
I was a little pissed with the pediatrician at the pediatric emergency department when this is all they “prescribed”
