Rating: - I had one High Needs baby and one Colic Baby
"High Needs" and "Colic" are very different.
If you are going to buy this book, understand that colic babies get over their colic and then they are usually "normal" babies.
High Needs babies usually don't have colic, they are just needy ALL the time. Mine hated the swing, the stroller, the car seat, the crib, everything that wasn't me holding him ~ facing out so he can see the world. I wondered if he was in pain, I wondered why no one else's baby seemed as needy as mine, ... Read More
Rating: - Phenomenal!
I would tell anyone with a fussy baby to read this book. From cover to cover Dr. Sears nailed the definition of a "high-needs" baby. I felt as if he wrote the book about me and my baby. It was so encouraging to know that there wasn't anything "wrong" with my baby or with the feelings I had about her being so fussy-which is a big deal to parents of a high-needs child; most people just don't "get it". I still (my baby is now 9 months) pull this book out when we are going through a rough patch; it's ... Read More
Rating: - The Opposite of Reassuring
My daughter was "colicky" for exactly 4 months and 9 days. Yes, you may not believe it when people say stuff like that, but it literally disappeared overnight. During these 4 months I was tired, stressed out, and confused as to why she was so unhappy all of the time.
Unfortunately, "The Fussy Baby Book" was the first book I read to try and find some answers and help. I couldn't even finish the book because by three-quarters of the way through I felt so guilty that my instincts seemed ... Read More
Rating: - A little disappointed
After reading this book I was a little disappointed. Yes it talks about how to work with a "high need child" The Book should probably been titled more like that. I have a fussy baby, but after reading the book, I realize he is not a "high need baby". The problem is due to earlier medical issues and now problems with finding a good formula and introducing foods. The chapter that they said would cover this topic was mostly centered around breastfeeding issues, and very little on formula fed babies and ... Read More
Rating: - Attachment Parenting Helps Colic Symptoms
I am writing this for my daughter who had a colicky baby even though she was totally breastfed. Life was miserable for months. Vicki purchased the Dr. Sears colic sling and tried all of the other suggestions. Within a week, peace was restored! We now have a happy baby and happy parents. Symptoms are almost gone. They were all so stressed and exhausted, they were in a vicious cycle...like a dog chasing it's tail! Thank God for William & Martha Sears!
