Every night millions of exhausted parents are awakened multiple times. They bounce their infants, pace the room, pull out their hair, and drive half-asleep to work the next day. Sleep deprivation can last for months – even years – wreaking havoc on this most precious time of life; pushing even the best parents to the breaking point.

Now Dr. Harvey Karp, author of the best-selling DVDs/books, The Happiest Baby on the Block and Happiest Toddler on the Block, has written a new parenting book, The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep (Birth to Five), which presents innovative new ideas about child sleep and reveals surprisingly easy tips to stop bad habits before they occur; end bedtime battles; and boost sleep 1-3 hours/night for children and their weary parents.

According to a recent sleep survey conducted by BabyCenter.com, 3 in 5 moms report sleep is the number one challenge in their family, ahead of time and money. Over 50% of these moms admitted to sleeping less than six hours per night (studies show this drops reaction time to the level of someone who is drunk). The stress of exhaustion triggers enormous suffering and financial costs, including marital conflict; postpartum depression (10-30% of moms and many dads); SIDS/suffocation; car accidents, even maternal obesity.

Dr. Karp empowers readers with new insights and simple tips to quickly get children to sleep, including:

  • Why there’s no such thing as spoiling a baby
  • How to quickly add an hour—or more—to an infant’s sleep
  • Why waking a sleeping baby actually boosts an infant’s sleep
  • Why white noise works sleepytime magic for all babies…all sleep…all year
  • A new, no tears way to sleep train a toddler… called, twinkle interruptus
  • Why a toddler’s bedtime really starts…right after breakfast
  • Which bedtime routines work great and which ones lead to big problems
