I looked it up on Amazon, here is what is says , sounds a little like
Babywise to me, has anyone actually read it?


It's an insidious myth that all new parents must give up not only their
sleep but their entire lives for the first year of a baby's life.
Codswallop, says British-born Tracy Hogg. Having worked with more than five
thousand babies over the past twenty years, and dubbed "The Baby Whisperer"
by her grateful clientele, Tracy has the unique ability to understand a
baby's every coo and cry. She can tell instantly whether a baby is hungry,
tired, in real distress, or just in need of a little TLC. But her most
amazing gift is her ability to teach parents how they too can "whisper" to
their babies.

In this groundbreaking book, Tracy concentrates her vast knowledge (and huge
doses of uncommon sense) into simple, accessible programs that parents can
begin as early as the first weeks of a baby's life. With these programs you
will learn

 ¸  E.A.S.Y.--how to get baby to eat, play, and sleep on a schedule that
will make every member of the household's life easier and happier.
 ¸  S.L.O.W.--how to interpret what your baby is trying to tell you (so you
don't try to feed him when he really wants a nap).
 ¸  How to identify which type of baby yours is--Angel, Textbook, Touchy,
Spirited, or Grumpy--and then learn the best way to interact with that type.
 ¸  Tracy's Three Day Magic--how to change any and all bad habits (yours and
the baby's) in just three days.

But perhaps the most important part of Tracy's philosophy is contained in
one word: respect. Tracy advises treating your baby as you would any human
being--think twice before shaking loud toys in a baby's face, lifting a
baby's legs over her head with no advance warning, or even letting a baby
cry it out. At the heart of Tracy's simple but profound message: treat the
baby as you would like to be treated yourself.

Reassuring, down-to-earth, and often flying in the face of conventional
wisdom, Secrets of the Baby Whisperer promises parents not only a healthier,
happier baby but a more relaxed and happy household as well.
