Random House Publishing Group. Very Good. 4.26(w) x 6.96(h) x 0.95(d). Paperback. 2007. 352 pages.<br>TRACY HOGG HAS GIVEN PARENTS A GREAT GIFT-the abili ty to develop early insight into their child's temperament. -Los Angeles Family When Tracy Hogg's Secrets of the Baby Whisperer w as first published, it soared onto bestseller lists across the co untry. Parents everywhere became whisperers to their newborns, am azed that they could actually communicate with their baby within weeks of their child's birth. Tracy gave parents what for some am ounted to a miracle: the ability to understand their baby's every coo and cry so that they could tell immediately if the baby was hungry, tired, in real distress, or just in need of a little TLC. Tracy also dispelled the insidious myth that parents must go sle epless for the first year of a baby's life-because a happy baby s leeps through the night. Now you too can benefit from Tracy's mor e than twenty years' experience. In this groundbreaking book, she shares simple, accessible programs in which you will learn: &# 8226; E.A.S.Y.-how to get baby to eat, play, and sleep on a sched ule that will make every member of the household's life easier an d happier. &#8226; S.L.O.W.-how to interpret what your baby is tr ying to tell you (so you don't try to feed him when he really wan ts a nap). &#8226; How to identify which type of baby yours is-An gel, Textbook, Touchy, Spirited, or Grumpy-and then learn the bes t way to interact with that type. &#8226; Tracy's Three Day Magic -how to change any and all bad habits (yours and the baby's) in j ust three days. At the heart of Tracy's simple but profound mess age: treat the baby as you would like to be treated yourself. Rea ssuring, down-to-earth, and often flying in the face of conventio nal wisdom, Secrets of the Baby Whisperer promises parents not on ly a healthier, happier baby but a more relaxed and happy househo ld as well. Editorial Reviews The Barnes & Noble Review Focusin g on the need to incorporate a new baby into the family's routine , and emphasizing that parents should treat babies like people ra ther than little gurgling things, Baby Whisperer Tracy Hogg provi des a wonderful primer for parents interested in fully understand ing their babies' unspoken needs. Because, as Hogg explains, alth ough all your baby's cries might sound the same at first, with a little practice an observant parent will be able distinguish betw een a cry of hunger, a tired cry, a bored cry, or...well, you par ents know how many different cries there are! Drawing upon her 20 years as a nurse and midwife, Hogg outlines some simple progra ms that parents can follow to ensure they're meeting their baby's needs but not making mistakes that could result in a difficult a nd overly demanding child. The E.A.S.Y. program -- which breaks t he baby's day into Eating, Activity, Sleeping, and You -- will pr ovide a structured routine that is beneficial for both baby and p arents. 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 u nmistakably British tone, Hogg encourages readers to get to know their baby as an independent person and to respect his or her nee ds. But she stresses that this doesn't mean the baby's needs shou ld disrupt the family's rhythm. Following the wisdom of the Baby Whisperer will help establish communication between baby and pare nt and foster a structure that works for everyone, resulting in h appier babies and less frenzied parents who are better able to ap preciate their new bundle of joy. (Karen Burns) - bn.com Review Hogg, an English nurse and founder of Baby Technique, a Los Ang eles-based newborn and lactation consulting firm, has a way of ca lming and caring for babies that led one of her clients to dub he r the baby whisperer. In this, her first book, she teaches parent s how to decipher infants' language--their cries, gestures, and f acial expressions. Her E.A.S.Y. (eat, activity, sleep, your time) method offers a relaxed, commonsense approach. Every aspect of c are for mom and baby is covered, with interesting charts and clea r references. There are many good books on baby care, such as Arl ene Eisenberg and others' What To Expect the First Year (LJ 6/1/8 9), Jodi A Mindell's Sleeping Through the Night (LJ 6/1/97), and, of course, Dr. Spock's oeuvre, but this book possesses unusual t enderness and heart, and it respects babies as people, albeit lit tle ones. For all public libraries and any parenting shelf, this is the perfect gift for a new mom and family.--Annette V.
