Product Description
It's reality-check time! You are at least five months into your tour of parenting duty by now. The complexity of child-training has begun to come into focus. You have learned that as your baby matures both constant and variable factors continually influence his or her development. What behaviors can and should you expect from your pretoddler? Feeding time for your pretoddler, for example, is now more than a response controlled by a sucking reflex. For the pretoddler, mealtime is part of a very complex, conscious interaction between what the child does and what his parents expect him to do. Right and wrong conduct will be encouraged, discouraged, and guided when necessary. In fact, right and wrong patterns of behavior will now be part of your baby's entire day. That's why feeding time, waketime and sleeptime provide wonderful opportunities for training and Babywise Book II will guide you all the way, from the high chair to playpen, from the living room to the back yard. This series teaches the practical side of introducing solids food, managing mealtimes, nap transitions, traveling with your infant, setting reasonable limits while encourage healthy exploration and much more. You will learn how to teach your child to use sign language for basic needs, a tool proven to help stimulate cognitive growth and advance communication. Apply the principles and your friends and relatives will be amazed at the alertness, contentedness and happy disposition of your baby

 Wonderful series October 30, 2008
i looked this series of books. It helped me get my baby to sleep through the night by 6 weeks. I LOVED IT, and still use the theories today having a toddler
 Unsound, Unbiblical, Emotionally damaging September 22, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have seen these principles in action and they are emotionally damaging to children. Buyer Beware: Unsound Biblical basis for these books. This is the secular version. Based on unsound methods that go against well known developmental truths. Choose Biblically sound, emotionally healthy Christian parenting such as that recommended by the Sears.
 Better off talking with other parents June 1, 2008
I bought Book I and reviewed that as ok. I reviewed that it seemed like it made you feel as a failure if you followed their methods and it didn't work. But, I did also think that there was enough valuable information in it to buy this second book.
I read it and have determined that I got better advice from talking to real people. These books just don't support you as a parent if things don't turn out to their mold of what the child should be doing.
They introduce sign language signs at the end of the book, but don't suggest how to introduce those signs. There needs to be more on that than just the signs.
Big fans of Babywise May 2, 2008
Babywise has worked great for our son and we highly recommend the whole series of books.
I can't follow any unwise advise April 26, 2008

I have purchased this book together with Babywise sleep book from couple of my friends' recommendation and have to say I am very much disappointed with books. Both books are focused on training a baby based on idea that Baby can act and think like adult and near adult phisican & mental capability.
I am not condemming this book to be worst book ever as some people do.. but would like to caution parents and let them know it is only one person's opinion and suggesion.
