I love Baby Wise

July 5, 2010 at 11:30 pm 7 pounds,4 ounces and 18inches long; my Mariah Elise was born, I have been blessed with a gift from God. Its my first time as a mom and I definitely didn't know all the do's and dont's of motherhood.  Six weeks after bringing my daughter home having her sleep all day and staying awake all night,crying and me not  knowing what is wrong and on top of that i was completely exhausted because of lack of sleep and i was breastfeeding  uhh i prayed and was like "something has got to change!" A friend of mine (who was expecting her first child) bought 

me a book called On Becoming Baby wise by Gary Ezzo and Robert Bucknam. This book I am telling you has saved my life I don't know what i would have done with out it. My daughter has been sleeping 8hr plus at night since week 7 she eats well and get complements all the time for being a happy and well behaved baby and i give credit to baby wise. The schedule and information that is given in the book is stuff that nobody tells you. Once my daughter started getting the rhythm and hang of things, which only took a week, she was well rested which lead to her being aware, happy and energetic and that allowed her to learn and develop during the day because she wasn't tired and grumpy. I also get lots of peaceful sleep so Iam able to play with her, teach and care for her the way I need to. I believe putting a baby on a schedule is awesome and its whats best for baby, mommy and the whole family. <3
