I read some more last night, and I found 2 things really interesting..
Everyone 'bashes' this way of raising a child because they seem to think that we're depriving our children(or children-to-be) of food, but so far(and I've read a lot) it's all about feeding when the baby is hungry, just not feeding whenever you hear a wimper..
There's mention of routine, but I can't believe how much of the book I've read, and still no real scheduling instructions.
I sure wish people would read this book before making harsh judgements.
Also, they seem to promote breast-feeding, moreso than formula feeding.
I'm curious if everyone here breastfed? I plan on it, but honestly, after reading the few pages on how to do it, I'm scared of not being able to do it! Seems awkward..and I'm clumsy, so I hope it comes to me..sooner than later! :)
