Tip of the day

Don't get in a panic over Christmas. Keep a box and put a little in it every week - small gifts, wine, nibbles, napkins etc. This way, you'll be more relaxed and less skint in December! keriku

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

A wonderful, gentle book about leading your child into good habits - no crying, no frustrated mummy, no exhausted babies. Her calming writing style instantly makes you feel more relaxed about any problems you are having with sleep issues, and inspire you to try the 'one small step at a time' approach - brilliant.

Absolutely fantastic! I would have been lost without this book. It is very easy to read and so re-assuring. She allows you to trust your instincts and parent your child in a gentle way, while still helping them to sleep. Wonderful.

This book saved my sanity when struggling with a non-sleeper. Firstly, it made me feel much better - there were so many worse sleepers out there! It also helped me understand more about baby/toddler sleep, & has some innovative ideas, especially for those breastfeeding and/or co-sleeping. Great to have some practical alternatives to the controlled crying route.

Did it work? To an extent, and it certainly helped me think about what sort of sleep-parenting style I wanted
