The Happiest Baby on the Block

The Happiest Baby on the Block is a DVD and BOOK. This is the BEST DVD and book. Its by a UCLA Pediatric Dr who kept seeing shaken baby syndromes, and couldn’t understand why, because many other countries don’t have this problem! He did 30 years of researching how other countries raise and handle there babies and came up with the 5 S’s. These are 5 things to do to sooth your crying baby. A quick overview .. Swaddle tightly, Shhhhh (in there ears), Side (holding not laying them down), shake (not for real, its like a gentle giggle), and Suck (pacifier). For a quick preview you can see some of it on YouTube, HOWEVER you absolutely need to buy the DVD because it has 3 sound tracks on it, to duplicate the noise your baby heard in the womb. One is really loud to calm them down from a crying fit, one is a med noise to calm for just gentle crying, and the last one is 40 mins long of gentle womb noises to help them sleep. I PROMISE they work great! We have used it with both our children and the cry less and sleep longer and both our kids were breast fed. This is the BEST DVD and Book to have if you want to have a happy baby and get more sleep yourself!

So I suggest getting the DVD LONG before the baby comes, watch it a bunch of times and PRACTICE swaddling on dolls – it helps! Then buy the book and the book goes into a lot of detail as to WHY these things work so well. By educating yourself as to why these actions work, you will be better able to understand what your baby needs.

You will be a better parent for having watched this DVD, reading this book and implementing it in your family’s lives.

There is also a second book for “The Happiest Toddler on the Block” it works too!

Good Luck and go have a Happy Baby!
