Book Reviews of Sleep Deprived No More: From Pregnancy to Early Motherhood-Helping You and Your Baby Sleep Through the NightBook Review: Hope for the Sleep-Deprived Expectant or New Parent Summary: 5 StarsIn talking with numerous parents of young children over the years, I think the #1 question I get is "How can I get my baby to sleep?" Parents are sleep-deprived, struggling with exhaustion, and out of patience with their baby's lack of sleep. And moms are hit doubly hard because they've just come through all the sleep problems that can be associated with pregnancy. Fortunately, there's a great book available that can help expectant and new parents cope with sleep disturbances.

She has also written books on sleep issues with older children, including "Take Charge of Your Child's Sleep: The All-in-One Resource for Solving Sleep Problems in Kids and Teens" and "Sleeping Through the Night: How Infants, Toddlers, and Their Parents Can Get a Good Night's Sleep."
