I found the section on sleep to be really comforting - so worried about being a walking zombie come November! I figure that if French babies can eat on a schedule and sleep through the night after the first few months, then there's hope for my American baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bringing-up-bebe#post-170342 Sun, 27 May 2012 07:35:46 +0000 Cole 170342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read it and enjoyed it, I felt like some of the press coverage was negative and some people took it as a suggestion that the French have a superior way of raising their kids so I wasn't sure what I was going to think( I spent a year there after college and there were a number of things that bugged me about the way they raise their kids and a lot of things I liked.) I felt like it was a neat peek into the way they some French people raise their kids and I liked some of the ideas. Our library had it classified as "essays" not as a parenting how to book which I think is better than comparing it to a book on child rearing written by an expert. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bringing-up-bebe#post-170327 Sun, 27 May 2012 06:37:54 +0000 Andrea 170327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I have the gist of it from the press coverage a while back. I like some concepts for sure and have done the same thing in my parenting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bringing-up-bebe#post-170326 Sun, 27 May 2012 06:33:50 +0000 chopsuey 170326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never heard of it, but will check it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bringing-up-bebe#post-170323 Sun, 27 May 2012 06:13:40 +0000 hellobeeboston 170323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just bought it!

I'm not really into reading baby books at all...but for some reason this one seemed intriguing to me. I am about halfway through and I have found it fascinating so far. </p>
