- Category: Dr. Karp answers your questions
- Are babies hearing sounds that adults can’t?
- Do the 5 S’s work with high need babies?
- Does the book contain any information on when to put the baby on a schedule and when to let the baby cry?
- Dr. Karp’s book has been very influential on my husband and me, and we would like to know his thoughts on mattress wrapping.
- During this very very hot weather in California the temperature in the hot is running in the 80's, is it wise to have the baby swaddled?
- Help! How do we undo the fabulous swaddle technique?
- how do I wean my baby from swaddling?
- I have heard about your book thru friends, but my little boy is almost 8 months. Does your book apply to babies that old?
- I recently watched your DVD and love the swaddling concept. My question is that we live on an island in the Caribbean in an un-air conditioned house, and I am concerned my baby may get too hot being all swaddled up ... after I do it he seems very hot and sweaty... although he usually sleeps better and seems pretty calm. How hot is too hot?
- I used the 5s with my son. He is now 6 months old and I need help teaching him to sleep unswaddled.
- I was told that at one of your appearances you talked about potty training. Do you have any books or dvd's on that?
- I was wondering - she HATES her car seat and often screams inconsolably while in it - any tricks for getting her to be happier/more comfortable while en route?
- I would love to know if the 5 Ss are mainly for newborns or if you can start with an older baby (12 weeks)
- I'm finding it takes a bit longer to get her calm with the 5 S's, primarily because she is fighting the swaddle.
- In the Happiest Baby video, the swining/jiggling is demonstrated and then showed how to use the swing to continue the motion after the baby has calmed down. Do baby bouncers (that vibrate) work as well as swings?
- Is it dangerous to continue to swaddle a baby after they are able to roll over?
- Is there an increased risk of SIDS when having my baby swaddled?
- Luv your books and techniques! Both my kids love the happiest toddler on the block dvd theme song, can I find it on CD?
- My 3-month old son wakes up early from naps and can’t put himself back to sleep. What do I do?
- My daughter is 8 months old - Is it time for her to stop swaddling? If so what is the best way to do this without confusing her and losing her routine?
- My daughter suddenly bursts into crying that sounds like she is in pain even when she is swaddled. This happens after we use one or all of the 5 S’s….any suggestions?
- My son is five months old and continues to need to be swaddled to sleep. I'm really concerned that he will still feel he needs to be swaddled at 9 months of age, but won't fit in any blankets.
- My son is having a growth spurt and is teething, screaming all of the time & moving his arms & legs up and down. It takes forever to calm him unless he is swaddled. What should I do?
- My son screams when swaddled. I need your help!
- My wife and I have been swaddling our 9 month old for naps and nighttime since birth. Now we can't get him to sleep without it! Help!
- My youngest daughter keeps crying in the daytime, she doesn't sleep & she always wants my breast to calm and to sleep...
- Need advice - weaning the swaddle at 4 months: do I need to be concerned about prohibiting motor development if I'm still swaddling her?
- Our baby boy sleeps great at night but during the day his naps are short & he is extremely fussy! Help!
- Question regarding the “Calming Reflex” technique on The Happiest Baby video.
- We did not know about The Happiest Baby on the Block when our son was born and suffered through months of sleep deprivation & post-partum depression as we couldn’t soothe him. He hated being swaddled. Our question is; we would like to add to our family but cannot see ourselves surviving another colicky child. Why do you think your techniques work?
- What do I do when my child hits me?
- When do I have to stop swaddling my baby?
- When I put the baby on her side/ stomach and then swing/ jiggle her, will this put pressure/hurt the baby's ear?
- When is white noise ("shushing") too loud for the baby?
