Basically,  some sort of sleep training was given to babies at 3
weeks of age, if they had fed more than 11 times in 24 hours in the
first week (deemed to be 'at risk' of  'sleeping problems' ). The
ones who had the sleep training were more likely to 'sleep through'
at 12 weeks.

But if you look at the figures, 61 per cent of the non-sleep trained
babies slept through anyway - more than half. 82 per cent of the
sleep trained babies did , but that's no guarentee!! I want to see
actual numbers;  I want to know what happened to feeding; I want to
know what the parents did, and what they felt about it. I also want
to know actual *numbers* and the confidence interval of the results
(not given in the abstract and I can't access the full paper).
