About this listen
There are two schools of thought for encouraging babies to sleep through the night: the hotly debated Ferber technique of letting the baby "cry it out", or the grin-and-bear-it solution of getting up from dusk to dawn as often as necessary. If you don't believe in letting your baby cry it out, but desperately want to sleep, there is now a third option, presented in Elizabeth Pantley's sanity-saving audiobook The No-Cry Sleep Solution.
Pantley's successful solution has been tested and proven effective by scores of mothers and their babies from across the United States, Canada, and Europe. Based on her research, Pantley's guide provides you with effective strategies to overcoming nap-time and nighttime problems. The No-Cry Sleep Solution offers clearly explained, step-by-step ideas that steer your little ones toward a good night's sleep - all with no crying.

The writing and tone throughout was unprofessional, polarising, and in places, factually incorrect. Throughout, there is a common thread arguing that these methods are the best and the only way, and that those who chose other methods are wrong, and worse, potentially damaging. We all know, at the most fundamental level, that there are no two babies that are alike, and no two parents that are alike. All parents are doing is what they genuinely think is best. I have encountered parents and professionals who are humanistic, responsive and child-centred who would challenge many of the assertions made in this book. I am a mental health professional and academic/author and if I know one thing, I know that is no wrong or right way in relation to supporting a child though aspects of their life such as sleep. Any of the suggestions made which could have been helpful to me were undermined by a defiant, authoritative stance made here by the author, who was even sarcastic at times when describing the wrongs of other methods. I have never come across this before and found it to make for unpleasant listening, and unnecessary- If the solution is efficacious and evidence-based, one should never need to attack the beliefs, work and actions of others.
Final point- The book mentions certain forms, spreadsheets, without which you cannot proceed to the next chapters, steps in the process. How audible customers should get around this, was never addressed.
Negative and unhelpful book

Nothing in it I didn’t learn from Gina Ford ironically.

Perhaps seeing the tables spreadsheets she’s describing in painful detail is fine when written down but listening to it is beyond excruciating.
Also, I got around half way through before I decided I couldn’t bare it a second longer, but all she kept repeating was how she’d transformed babies sleep patterns with her method with glowing reviews from case studies without actually telling you how it’s done. Perhaps that bit comes at the end if, unlike me you can endure it that long. I’d give this 0 stars across the board if it was possible
Don’t waste your money.
