If you check the section on teething in "What to expect the first year" It
recommends not attending to your baby if she cries at night while teething -
"she will only get used to your presence"

That book was written by a female as well...





Judy asks,
*******************************

Is this advice not to respond to a baby always from a male and/or doctor
author?  I myself have not seen this advice from a female.
*********************************

Not always, Judy.  Sometimes some of the worst advice comes from females.
Check out the Baby Whisperer by Tracy Hogg, or The Contented Little Baby
Book by Gina Ford.
