This review is from: Good Night, Sleep Tight Workbook: The Sleep Lady's Gentle Step-by-step Guide for Tired Parents (Paperback)

I bought this workbook when I bought the book and it hasn't actually been any help at all. It does have some pages to rip out and use for keeping track of sleep patterns but I did not use them, any paper you already have works just fine.

This review is from: Good Night, Sleep Tight Workbook: The Sleep Lady's Gentle Step-by-step Guide for Tired Parents (Paperback)

I was surprised to see anything but great reviews for this book. This is a wonderful guide for any parent whose child is having sleep problems. It claims to be a common sense method and it certainly is - when you're a sleepless parent you really want a sleep technique that works and that does not require a bunch of mental gymnastics. This workbook format is terrific for the busy (and tired!) parent, it's easy to use, even if you do not have the original book that this workbook is based on (Good Night Sleep Tight).

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for a busy {tired} mom, October 13, 2010

This review is from: Good Night, Sleep Tight Workbook: The Sleep Lady's Gentle Step-by-step Guide for Tired Parents (Paperback)

If you read my review of The Sleep Lady's Good Night Sleep Tight, you know that I absolutely love her technique. I was having some terrible trouble getting my girls to go to bed and sleep through the night and was in desperate need of some help. I followed her techniques and was able to consistently sleep until my alarm went off. That was unheard of in my home. I will be honest and admit that I didn't stick with it like I should have and I still have a terrible time getting my girls to bed, but the technique definitely deserves merit.

This workbook is almost like a "cliff notes" version of Good Night Sleep Tight and is just as essential for a new mom. New moms are tired enough and it can be really difficult to find time to read anything, let alone a 400+ page book about sleeping. So, the condensed version is really a lifesaver. As a matter of fact, when I finished reading through it for my review, I passed it along to my pregnant friend who was thrilled to get it.

This book is perfect for any mom with a kid under the age of 5. The Sleep Lady, Kim West, has techniques all younger aged kids and I would imagine that most of them are just as phenomenal as the two stages that I tried for my girls.
