Thank goodness for this book! *****
When my baby was in the throes of full-blown colic and nothing seemed to help him, this book helped my own emotional state. It was such a relief to read the experiences of someone who had been there, done that, and could understand how horrible it was. When my husband couldn't sympathize, (he was at work, not stuck at home with a screaming baby all day!) Tonja Krautter could. It helped to validate my feelings.
The book offers solutions first, for those easier-to-fix versions of colic. Then, if you are so unfortunate to have a baby that doesn't respond to treatment, it offers empathy. It is a must-have book for those sleepless nights when the baby will only doze off on your chest and nowhere else.
Dr. Krautter's book is a blessing from above. *****
The author suggests many of the same tricks to help stop colic babies from crying as does the book the Happiest baby on the block, but she goes one step furthur. She writes this book with the compassion of a best friend who's been through the same problem you're experiencing, and is trying to help you figure out what's wrong by sharing her story and what she found has been helpful.
This book is an in depth view of the problem of colic babies. It covers just about everything you can think of: from working to find a diagnosis to coping with the feeling of loss of having a difficult baby.
Its hard getting support from doctors and friends who don't quite understand what your going through. This book helped me to feel like I wasn't going crazy, that it is a tramatic experience to have to deal with when your in the midst of it. Its easy to read, so I don't feel overwhelmed trying to find answers when the baby is calm enough to get a break.
Very Helpful, Well Organized, Easy Read *****
I have a son who has colic. I had spent many hours trying to find some simple answers to my questions about colic until I found Dr. Krautter's book. Wow, what a well organized book which provided answers to all of my questions. I GIVE THIS 5 STARS AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
