SECRETS OF THE BABY WHISPERER: HOW TO CALM, CONNECT, AND COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR BABY
Hogg, Tracy
2001 6644 Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: How to Calm, Connect, and Communicate with Your Baby FROM OUR EDITORS The Barnes & Noble Review Focusing on the need to incorporate a new baby into the family's routine, and emphasizing that parents should treat babies like people rather than little gurgling things, "Baby Whisperer" Tracy Hogg provides a wonderful primer for parents interested in fully understanding their babies' unspoken needs. Because, as Hogg explains, although all your baby's cries might sound the same at first, with a little practice an observant parent will be able distinguish between a cry of hunger, a tired cry, a bored cry, or...well, you parents know how many different cries there are! Drawing upon her 20 years as a nurse and midwife, Hogg outlines some simple programs that parents can follow to ensure they're meeting their baby's needs but not making mistakes that could result in a difficult and overly demanding child. The E.A.S.Y. program -- which breaks the baby's day into Eating, Activity, Sleeping, and You -- will provide a structured routine that is beneficial for both baby and parents. And by adhering to the S.L.O.W. program -- Stop, Listen, Observe, What's Up? -- babyspeak will quickly become decipherable. The guiding principle for all the recommendations in Secrets of the Baby Whisperer is respect . In her warm, reassuring, and unmistakably British tone, Hogg encourages readers to get to know their baby as an independent person and to respect his or her needs. But she stresses that this doesn't mean the baby's needs should disrupt the family's rhythm. Following the wisdom of the Baby Whisperer will help establish communication between baby and parent and foster a structure that works for everyone, resulting in happier babies and less frenzied parents who are better able to appreciate their new bundle of joy. (Karen Burns) FROM THE PUBLISHER Whether this is their first child or their tenth, parents start out with so many expectations and have so much advice floating around them. Pick up the baby when she cries. Don't pick up the baby. Have lots of stimulating learning toys. Keep the baby's room cool at night. Motion helps babies sleep. But what if you follow all the "expert" advice and still have a cranky, uncomfortable, sleepless baby on your hands? The key to a happy baby is understanding what she is trying to tell you with her cries, gestures, and facial expressions. In this groundbreaking book, Tracy Hogg, who has cared for more than 5,000 babies, unlocks the secrets of infant language so that any parent, grandparent, or caregiver can interpret what a baby is "saying" and give her what she needs. What to do when the baby won't stop crying and you're panicking. (Hint: trust yourself-parents' instincts are usually right.) Find time for yourself. Structure your baby's day with Tracy's EASY program:E-Eat, S=Sleep, A=Activity, Y=Your Time. Identify which type of baby your baby is most like-Angel, Textbook, Touchy, Spirited, Grumpy-and then learn the best way to interact with your baby's type.
