This work advocates a radical form of babycare which urges parents to sleep with their babies. The author explains the advantages of this idea, showing how babies who sleep with their parents benefit from the increased physical contact, and how their parents get virtually a full night's sleep. The book reviews the history of babies in the bed and through interviews with parents explores current attitudes to the idea. It also contains a new perspective on the tragedy of cot death, as well as answers to all the common objections. Finally, the author deals with the moment with a baby leaves its parents' bed.

Three in a Bed: Why You Should Sleep with Your Baby

This book considers the inner world of the child and argues that children are more capable than many of us realize. Babies make their needs known; toddlers can walk for miles; teenagers are equipped to make their own decisions. Children need adult support, but they do not need interference, which can damage their growth. If we learn to trust our children at each stage, they are more likely to find their own balance. The author suggests ways in which parents can break their own cycle of control, which includes judgement and punishment, coaxing and overprotection. It also considers the needs of the parents. Modern life insists that we try to cram more and more into our day; this book is about doing a little less.

Do Not Disturb: The Benefits of Relaxed Parenting for You and Your Child

<p>Only since Victorian times has it been standard practice for mothers and fathers to send their babies to sleep alone, away from the parental bed - often in another room. This book reveals how babies who sleep with their parents benefit by getting virtually a full night's sleep. The author explains the advantages of this radical form of baby care, including its benefits for breastfeeding mothers, reviews the history of babies in the bed and, through interviews with parents, explores attitudes to the idea. The book also contains a fresh perspective on the tragedy of cot death, as well as practical advice on how to sustain your sex life, hints on safety in the bed, answers to all the common objections and dealing with the moment when the baby leaves its parents' bed.</p>
