  <default_description>Is it OK to sleep with your newborn baby? How old is too old for breastfeeding? These questions and more are answered in this latest addition to the Sears Parenting Library. Attachment Parenting encourages early, strong, and sustained attention to the new babys needs and this book outlines the steps that will create the most lasting bonds between parents and their children. Practical and inspirational, this book, the heart of the Sears parenting creed, is a necessity for every new parents' bookshelf. William Sears, M.D., and Martha Sears, R.N., are widely regarded as North Americas foremost baby and childcare experts and have had success with their previous 16 books addressing parenting issues. William Sears, M.D., is a contributing editor to Parenting and Baby Talk magazines, as well as the parenting.com web site. The most-frequently asked parenting questions from this site have now been compiled into four easy-to-read FAQ books: The First Three Months, How To Get Your Baby to Sleep, Feeding the Picky Eater, and Keeping Your Baby Healthy.</default_description>

Rather than extolling the virtues of being a wire-monkey Mama, and getting your newborn/infant to adapt to *your* busy life, Dr. Sears gently shows that it's OK to listen to your parenting instincts.

    <body><![CDATA[Another great book by Dr. William Sears.  The best part, in my opinion, is how he reinforces the fact that you can't &quot;spoil&quot; a baby by holding him too often.  Babies don't manipulate by crying, they communicate.  In fact, you CAN spoil a baby by not meeting his needs, giving him all the lo...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/33839151">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I think this book is an exceptional read for parents in my/ our generation.  Many people may say that you cannot learn how to &quot;parent&quot; from a book, and that's exactly why I like this book because it helps you to be confident in your natural parenting skills that God gave us (as called comm...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6629477">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[If you are interested in Attachment Parenting (AP) this is the book to read.  AP is a style of parenting which encourages the security and independence of the young child by allowing the child to develop emotional development at their own rate, rather than that of the parents.  This style of parenti...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19992472">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a great starter book about attachment parenting. Though, many of the Dr. Sears books are repetitive in content.  The book mainly focuses on several points: responding to baby's cries, sleeping with baby, and wearing the baby in a sling.  I am not so sure how these really correlate with studi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/36567888">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I love William Sears' books and I'm a big fan of attachment parenting, however, if you own many of his other books, then there is no need to purchase this one.  Everything in this book is also contained in all of his other books.<br/><br/>If you do not own any other of Dr Sears' books, then by all...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30409960">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I wouldn't say I <em>read</em> this so much as I browsed through it.  It was fine, although much of it was directed at how carrying your baby, giving birth to your baby, and breastfeeding your baby are all incredibly important for bonding with your baby.  I don't deny that, but since I don't have those optio...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34338927">more...</a>]]></body>
