controlled crying is dangerous says expert.

Its good to see a book written by a real Mum, someone who has experienced carrying and birthing a child, the beauty of breastfeeding and tells it like it is.
I have always disagreed with Gina Ford and those like her who encourage getting a new born into a routine days after birth, who encourage giving a bottle of formula at night, these things destroy the chances of successful breastfeeding and any lactation expert will verify the numbers of mothers who come to them in desperation when the systems dont work and baby is always crying and mother has had little sleep for weeks.
Thoughly agree, babies need cuddles and breastfeeding is best, Penelope Leach  gets a thumbs up from me.
