Do you learn better by watching rather than reading? Here is a chance to see how to transport your baby from screaming into serenity...in minutes. Watch as, step-by-step, Dr. Karp teaches new parent how to switch on their baby's powerful calming reflex. English and Spanish In "The Happiest Baby" Dr. Karp reveals a treasure sought by new parents for centuries... the "calming reflex" (the automatic "off-switch? for any baby?s crying). No wonder thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Michelle Pfeiffer have turned to Dr. Karp to learn his secrets for making babies happy. Elisabeth Bing author and co-founder of Lamaze International "The Happiest Baby on the Block is fun, fascinating and convincing. I highly recommend it to all new parents." (Running time - 38 minutes.) The DVD also contains 3 bonus chapters: 1) Dr. Karp answers 25 questions from parents about calming babies and helping them sleep. 2) A Spanish dubbed audio track of the entire 38 minute teaching video. 3) Three tracks of calming white-noise sound that is an extraordinary mix of womb sounds and a newly designed pulsation that babies love (even though it sounds a little odd to the ears of an adult) Each track can be played individually, played in sequence or repeated for hours to gently guide your baby into a deep level of relaxation. This video is designed in NTSC not PAL or SECAM. It is meant for use in most countries in the Western Hemisphere as well as Japan, South Korea, Greenland, Guam, Samoa, and the Philippines.

Life savers. He was a little fussy at the time, probably because he was ready for one of his many naps, and she performed the shoosh, shake, swaddle, and side calming method and he was out like a light in the few minutes it took her to just chit chat with us. As a gift she left us the DVD and CD. I wish everyone knew about these methods, they would be so much happier.
I've given this DVD to my sister who is due any day and my cousin who just had her baby boy last night. If it weren't for the swaddle neither of us would get any sleep. My son is now 3 months old, pushing 4 and the techniques still work. He startles in his sleep which invariably wakes him up.
When our nurse came over to show us the happiest baby techniques it was like a magic show. When we brought our new baby boy home we didn't think he was crying that much.we just figured that's what babies do. The swaddling was a life saver.

This book was given to me as a gift, and it could possibly be the best gift I received. A great book when you don't know how to calm your fussy baby and just want a few hours of sleep. My baby was not colicky but did have trouble sleeping through the night and calming down from crying fits. The 5 S solutions were invaluable. Making the shushing sound when he cries still works and he seems to forget why he was even crying in the first place. As a first time mom I tried to read everything I could about newborns. He loves to be swaddled, but at 4 1/2 months and 17 lbs he has become to large to even fit in the "swaddle me" wraps.

everything on the dvd we had alread been doing with our child, kinda like instinct i guess. also the extra sounds on there, were not really impressive. not worth it. maybe the cd would of been etter to buy, because i think there are more and you cant really have your dvd player going all night. I love that thing, my husband and I fall asleep to it as well, since baby sleeps in our room. the best investment for white moise is the Sleep Sheep. everyone told me i needed to get this dvd it works wonders, but when my husband and i watched it, we were pretty disapointed. the lady in the babystore roped me into spending the extra money.

All in all, I would recommend this product, especially to parents who maybe haven't had the opportunity to attend classes prior to the birth of their child. Karp in our childbirth preparation classes, it was useful to see them again in DVD form. The quality of the video is just above good amateur level, but that seems to be the standard for instructional videos of this sort. Although we had learnt many of the techniques shown by Dr. Not least because swaddling is something of an art form, similar to advanced origami but with a baby thrown in the mix.

I took the newborn, turned him on his side in my hand and gently shook him, as Dr. Karp described, and his crying stopped instantly. One of our children did not respond as consistently to these techniques as we expected. Once we went to visit a new mom and her little boy was crying and she was looking a little frazzled. (unless there are more serious issues going on) We used these techniques on both children and they are literally like magic. Karp demonstrates will sooth 99% of all crying children. I can't recommend this video highly enough. But they still applied most of the time.
It turned out that he had gastro issues that only medicine would relieve. The five techniques Dr. This video should be mandatory viewing for all new parents before they leave the hospital. His mom was astonished.
