Babies who cry a lot, or are unsettled in the night, are common
sources of concern for parents and, consequently, costly problems
for health services. In this book, Ian St James-Roberts summarises
the evidence concerning infant crying and sleeping problems to
provide a new evidence-based approach to these common challenges
for parents and health services. The book begins by distinguishing
between infant and parental parts of the problems and provides
guidelines for assessing each issue. Topics covered include: * the
pros and cons of 'infant-demand' versus 'limit-setting' forms of
parenting * causes of infant 'colicky' crying and night waking *
effects of night-time separations on infant attachments *
interventions such as swaddling, herbal remedies, and 'controlled
crying.' Since there is now firm evidence that parents'
vulnerabilities and cultural backgrounds affect how problems are
defined and guidance is acted upon, and that parents who wish to do
so can reduce infant crying and unsettled night waking, social
factors are considered alongside medical issues. Translating
research evidence into practical tools and guidance, The Origins,
Prevention and Treatment of Infant Crying and Sleeping Problems
will be essential reading for a wide range of healthcare
professionals including mental health staff, social workers,
midwives, health visitors, community physicians and paediatricians.
