The Origins, Prevention and Treatment of Infant Crying and Sleeping Problems
Babies who cry a lot, or are unsettled in the night, are common sources of concern for parents and, consequently, costly problems for health services. In this book, Ian St James-Roberts summarises the evidence concerning infant crying and sleeping problems to provide a new evidence-based approach to these common challenges for parents and health services. The book begins by distinguishing between infant and parental parts of the problems and provides guidelines for assessing each issue. Topics covered include: • the pros and cons of 'infant-demand' versus 'limit-setting' forms of parenting • causes of infant 'colicky' crying and night waking • effects of night-time separations on infan...
Sleep and Development
Sleep problems of American children have become a matter of national concern, with recent estimates indicating that 13% to 27% of children have sleep problems as reported by their parents.

Bed to Zzzzzz
If you have problems getting your kids to sleep, or getting them to sleep through the night, this is the perfect book for you. What is sleep? Can we blame natural circumstances for the chronic, pervasive sleep deficits that our children often suffer? Or, should we look to nurture - parenting styles and their effects on sleep patterns? To answer these important questions, Dr. Jennifer Smith draws on the findings of academic research and her vast experience as a practising cognitive, developmental and counselling psychologist. The strategies she offers to deal with debilitating sleep habits have been found to be indispensable to families. Written in a friendly style and brilliantly illustrated by Eloise Hairman, this book is both informative, entertaining, and easy to read when you're tired.

Sleeping Better Together
Sleeping with a partner is often difficult: many people suffer from sleep disorders, and others have sleep preferences that can disturb their bedmate. This book is for every couple that has found it difficult to share a bed, argued about his snoring or her restless legs, or woken up to the alarm feeling tired and cranky. The authors first explain how sharing a bed affects sleep quality, well-being, and the happiness of the relationship. They then discuss factors that cause couples' sleep disturbances, from individual preferences to gender differences. They describe the connection between personality traits and sleep habits, and they reveal the ways in which age and aging affect our sleep. Most of all, they offer practical advice on how to sleep better with a partner, including getting-ready-for-bed rituals, the emotional and sexual aspects of sharing a bed, and guidelines for allowing children or pets into bed. The book also includes questions for assessing sleep needs and practical suggestions for ending arguments.
