I wrote earlier about my own personal experience with Ezzo, and I'd like to
respond to Elishiva's well thought reply.  I really needed the scheduling
tips from Babywise to help me organize my life with triplets, but I would
not recommend this book to patients, even mother's of multiples.  Instead,
I would explain my own experiences and those of other mothers of higher
order multiples, and talk to them about how gentle scheduling can help them
find some sanity.  I didn't know at the time I read the book that it was a
part of the larger "In God's Way" series.  I, too, find it humorous to
think of Mary using a clock to schedule baby Jesus.  I also feel that for
concrete thinkers, or those who see it as the way they must raise their
children rather than just another philosophy that they might want to take
bits and pieces from, would not benefit from this book.  I also feel that
the parent's intuition is a very, very important tool, and should be
celebrated, and not ignored.  If one of my families is a Babywise family, I
will make sure they understand that they know all the signs of a well
nourished baby, and also make sure that the babies are well nurtured, too.
