Precious Little Sleep: The Complete Baby Sleep Guide for Modern Parents by Alexis Dubief
5.0
We’ve been fairly lucky thus far to navigate the first five (almost six) months of our baby’s life with relative ease when it comes to sleep. She slept like a newborn when she was a newborn, started to get longer stretches, hit the four month regression around 13.5 weeks but recovered fairly quickly. I know that we’re not out of the woods by a LONG shot, but my deep dive into baby sleep research has seemingly helped us make it this far at least being prepared for what we could potentially experience. The Taking Cara Babies newborn course equipped us for the early weeks, and spoke to my desire to be flexible and compassionate while equipping my daughter with developmentally appropriate tools for sleep.
As a companion, this book is a wealth of knowledge from newbornhood and beyond. Some of it didn’t resonate with us, but I appreciated having ONE resource to go to that explained things thoroughly, from a research perspective, in order to help me feel like whatever decisions I was making were intentional and appropriate. As someone whose PPA made it so that she was frantically downloading baby sleep books at all hours of the night while nursing my two week old, I wish I could go back to her and say– just pick ONE book on the topic, and let it be this one.
