About It's Never Too Late To Sleep Train: The Low-Stress

Product Description From a leading pediatric sleep physician comes a revolutionary program that will have everyone in the house sleeping through the night. When Dr. Craig Canapari became a father, he realized that all his years of 36-hour hospital shifts didn't even come close to preparing him for the sleep deprivation that comes with parenthood. The difference is that parents don’t get a break—it’s hard to know if there’s a night of uninterrupted sleep anywhere in the foreseeable future. Sleepless nights for kids mean sleepless nights for the rest of the family—and a grumpy group around the breakfast table in the morning.   In It's Never Too Late to Sleep Train, Canapari helps parents harness the power of habit to chart a clear path to high-quality sleep for their children. The result is a streamlined two-step sleep training plan that focuses on cues and consequences, the two elements that shape all habits and that take on special importance when it comes to kids’ bedtime routines.   Dr. Canapari distills years of clinical research and experience to make sleep training simple and stress-free. Even if you’ve been told that you’ve missed the optimal "window" for sleep training, Dr. Canapari is here to prove that it's never too late, whether your child is 6 months or 6 years old. He's on your side in the battle against bedtime, and with his advice, parents and children alike can expect a lifetime of healthy sleep. About the Author Craig Canapari, M.D., is Director of the Yale Pediatric Sleep Center and an attending physician in Pediatric Pulmonology at Yale-New Haven Hospital. He served previously as Director of the Pediatric Sleep Center at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He graduated from Yale with a degree in English, and attended medical school at the University of Connecticut. Canapari’s work has been published in numerous academic journals as well as publications including the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, US News and World Report, and the Boston Globe. He lives outside New Haven with his wife and two sons. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. Chapter 1 The Biology of Bedtime How Children Sleep (and How to Make It Better) Goals • Review the normal development of sleep in infancy.• Understand how you can help your baby develop good sleep habits from birth.• Learn about using a baby monitor, the timing of sleep training, and more. Although this book is focused on helping the parents of children one year old and up, understanding the evolution of sleep in infancy is critical to understanding how your child’s sleep problems evolved, whether you have an infant, a toddler, or a school-age child. Many of the children I see in the Pediatric Sleep Center have “never been good sleepers,” according to their parents. This chapter will help you understand why your toddler has been struggling with sleep since he came home from the hospital, and it will also help you set your newborn up for good sleep. Don’t worry if you want to sleep train your baby. I’ll show you how to do that too. Sleep in the First Six Months of Life, and Beyond When my older son was about six months of age, he had been sleeping through the night for a month or so. My wife and I were relieved to have so easily moved out of the sleep-deprived newborn months, during which he had slept in short bursts, waking at two- or three-hour intervals for feeding and diaper changes. At least half of infants naturally grow out of this pattern by five to six months and achieve what scientists have defined as “sleeping through the night”--sleep without interruption from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Then our son started to wake up first once and then two to three times a night to nurse. We were perplexed: What had happened to sleeping through the night? Our routine had grown naturally out of the soothing techniques we’d used when he came home as a newborn: my wife would nurse our son to sleep, then place him in h
