REQUIRED READING FOR PARENTS WHO WANT TO GIVE THEIR CHILD THE BEST START IN LIFE
Must your charming five-month-old turn into a tiny terror? Are the "terrible twos" and public tantrums inevitable? Burton White, author of the classic The First Three Years of Life , doesn't think so. Basing his recommendations on thirty-seven years of research and observation, White shows how to bring up an independent, socially secure, and delightful child.
In his groundbreaking and easy-to-follow book, White takes parents through the normal development stages of their child's first thirty-six months, recommending the best ways to: React to a child's intentional cry Cope with stranger anxiety, separation anxiety, and sibling rivalry Manage unacceptable behavior without causing emotional harm to a child or damaging the parent/child relationship Handle challenging sleep situations, calm a cranky newborn, and deal with the toddler's fine art of the whine All parents who want a peaceful, loving relationship with their child instead of a constant emotional tug-of-war will find that Raising a Happy, Unspoiled Child is the one book that must have a place on their shelf.

COMFORTING A VERY YOUNG BABY
Using a Pacifier
While some parents simply want nothing to do with pacifiers, generally those who use them have a much easier time with their baby, especially during the first six months, then those who do not. This is not to say that you will necessarily have more trouble comforting your baby if you do not use a pacifier.
Some parents try pacifiers and then announce that their baby doesn't like them. I suspect that in the majority of such cases, either the parents have ambivalent feeling about using a pacifier or they didn't know how to introduce it to their baby. Occasionally, they may be using the wrong type of pacifier. Many people expect a newborn to be able to retain a pacifier and to suck on it for several minutes at a time. In fact, during the first weeks of infancy, very few babies are able to retain a pacifier for longer than a few seconds. Their tongues seem to get in the way and pop the pacifier out. This can lead to trouble, because often new parents feel they have to at least run hot water over the pacifier before they use it again. With a screaming baby in your arms, the situation easily becomes nerve-wracking. There is a knack to retaining a pacifier, and unfortunately it is not an inherited knack.
