What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Will be recommending it to my mom friends everywhere. I'm very thankful for my obgyn recommending this to me. This is the doctor that pioneered the concept of the 4th trimester. I recommend all new moms or moms who have bad experience with new borns.
Cons
Using "wilds" to describe africa reinforces negative stereotypes of the continent. The whole book just reads like a giant ad for the smart sleeper, which is obnoxious.
This book is super repetitive and could be condensed to 1 chapter. The info is great, but could have easily been knocked out in about 10 pages just teaching the 5 s's. He talks about ancient times a lot but it's all repetitive.
Highlights

I was a little pissed with the pediatrician at the pediatric emergency department when this is all they “prescribed”.

She basically rebranded this book but it’s the same 5 s’s.

The concept of the fourth trimester totally blew my mind.

Every parent needs to read this book at least once.

However, i was disappointed to see him push breastfeeding (he actually says breast is best, which is nonsense).

He really pushed getting a cd or download of white noise.

There's probably nothing in here that's necessarily groundbreaking, but i think the strength of this book is that it lays out a very methodical and likewise comprehensive approach to how to address fussy and upset babies step-by-step as opposed to just trying random techniques you read/heard about from scattered sources until you find something that maybe works.

I find it comical to read some of the amazon reviews from people saying the book is a waste of time pointing out that you could just read about the 5 s's via a short article online - of course you could, but that kind of defeats the point of reading a comprehensive book and source of information on the particular topic that's much more thorough than a 1 page article can be.
