Feedback On My Book

Hi Alison I contacted you via email about 3 months ago re my baby's sleep problems. Since then I ordered and read your book and applied the sleep training you recommend which worked immediately. Within 3 days my baby was sleeping 7pm until 6am with only 1 feed at m3 or 4am (which I will drop soon). Thank you for such a simple technique and a very clear book to follow. I have recommended the book to a friend who was experiencing similar issues as myself and she also stated that 'it's the best baby book ever'. Thank youRe: My Book

When I was given the sleeping plan book my baby was seven weeks old. I read the book and thought hahaha I wish. Well from 8 weeks my baby has slept seven pm until seven am. My little boy will be five months old this week. I feel so lucky that I was given this book as I know it has created the perfect sleeping environment and left me one very happy mummy. There are no words for how grateful I am that we get a full nights sleep every night without fail. I have endless thanks for Alison and her amazing plan.AmazingRe: My Book

Dear Alison I just wanted to tell you that I have found your book so helpful. I bought it after reading a review on amazon when I suspected my daughter my be experiencing silent reflux. I read through your list of symptoms (sobbing) and recognised her in so many. It gave me the confidence to approach the GP armed with the knowledge I needed. Thankfully the GP was very helpful and one of his children had experienced SR too. A mixture of meds and my going diary free knocked my wee girl's pain on the head and we uncovered a happy, sunny wee baby who (thanks to your reassurance technique) slept though the night soon after we had sorted her reflux. I had a wee boy 7 weeks ago and sadly he has SR too. His SR has presented differently but thanks to your book I identified it early too. We are just at the beginning of breaking his 'reflux code' as you so aptly put it, but we're on the right track. Thanks again RachelThank youRe: My Book

Hi I have read your book cover to cover in 24 hours! I am now the one who needs sleep! Seems great, but I do have a few questions where I don't find the book 100% clear, where do I go from here?Help?Re: My Book

Your sleep plan made total sense to me and I followed if from day one with my daughter 22 months ago and she is still enjoying her 2 hour naps each afternoon. As she started sleeping through from week 5 it was a given that we would also use the plan for our newborn son who is now sleeping through till 5am at only 3 weeks. I can't see it being long until we have him as a 12 hour sleeper also. Many thanks for your easy to follow plan. Thank youRe: My Book

A big thank you I read your book while pregnant and it seemed to make sense and very logical so we implemented the sleep plan as soon as we got home with Matilda. She followed it so well week by week. Around week 7 she was still waking up twice so I referred back to the book which said to try ignoring her 1st wake for food, I did and she settled straight back down. Week 9 Matilda slept straight through and I have now not been up for night feeds for 3 weeks. At 12 weeks she sleeps amazingly, 630pm -630am, she sometimes wakes in the night (i believe wind wakes her) but will go straight back to sleep till morning. I now have to work on her day naps will still seem a bit sporadic, thanks again. KarenA Big ThanksRe: My Book

Hi Alison I read your wonderful book, the sensational baby sleep plan. It was my bible in the early days of having my first baby and over a year later I still refer to it now! I valued it so much I recommend it to every expectant or new mum i see! When are you bringing out your next book, the sensational toddler sleep plan? Now that my baby is older, I'm looking for something I can refer to for the next stages. Will it also cover potty training and sleeping dry through the night? I know of lots of other mums who are also waiting keenly in anticipation!! Many thanks, Rachel Toddler sleep planRe: My Book

Dear Alison, My mother-in-law gave us your book before the birth of our first child (now 3.5 years old). I want to thank you so much for your sensible advice and guidance on how to get a baby into a good routine and have a positive association with sleep. We now have a second child (7.5 months) and have followed your advice. We feel that following your advice has allowed us to be the parents that we would like to be because everyone gets enough sleep! Our two girls are growing up beautifully and are lovely. Regards, Amber CernyThank youRe: My Book

The book was recommended to my by someone who already had implemented the sleeping plan and spoke highly about it. So, when preparing for new arrival, I read through, used highlighters and bookmarks, printed feeding plan and put it on my fridge. If I had any concerns, I would easily find the topic in the book as it is very easy to navigate through. We started the plan from day one and I was breastfeeding for 9 months. Baby started sleeping all the way through the night from when she was 3 months old. And from then on, bedtime is fun time! I believe that routine puts little person at ease and my baby is an example-she never fuss, always bright and smily, fed and well rested. And all thanx to Alison's brilliant book of advice! Thank you! We couldn't have done it without you!Thank you!Re: My Book

"Alison's book was recommended to me when I was about 35 wks' pregnant. At the time, I was struggling to get to grips with other, similar books that had been recommended to me. Upon reading Alison's book, I was instantly hooked. It was logical and easy to read. I loved the plan! When my daughter was born, she had difficulty feeding and my husband and I suspected that she had reflux. I got in touch with Alison as I was at a loss what to do because each feed was becoming increasingly stressful for both us and Briege. Alison was incredibly helpful. Alison's plan worked so well for us and Briege was pretty much sleeping through the night from about 10 weeks. And that's despite her feeding issues! I would have no hesitation in recommending Alison's services. She has more experience than I will ever have and I am grateful for her support and counsel. As and when I hit further hurdles with Briege, which I am sure I will, Alison will be my first port of call."Helen CroftRe: My Book
