I tried it for 5 horrendous days. I had a child with colic for 7
months.(After becoming desperate and CALLING Dr. Sears, I discovered
reflux). Anyways, I was in LLL at the time but instincts - I just wanted her
to be comfortable. Preparation for PArenthood claimed that babies with colic
in the hospital were put on this program and their pain went away. I had
spent 8 weeks at that point praying and crying to God and hearing nothing -
a desert experience if you will. I was taken in by the promise of pain
releif for my poor baby and the smattering of scripture which I had not seen
in any other parenting books.  I stopped because I was hysterical, prostrate
on the floor, screaming at God and I heard him tell me to research Ezzo on
the web. I felt that was the Holy Spirit finally saying something and what I
learned stopped me cold in my tracts. I cannot describe the torment of her
crying for her or for me, and I had extremely modified their program.

Now, when I find parents into that, I advise them to pray hard and ask for
guidance. Then understand that their instincts might just be the Holy Spirit
talking to them. Ignoring their instincts may be ignoring God's
instructions. I am sure that anyone who opens their heart to God, will hear
his answer.
