Using findings from one study in particular, but including evidence
from a wide range of studies over the past 10 years, Excessive
Crying in Infancy addresses potential causes, suggested
solutions, and parental response to this common, debilitating
problem. Numerous examples and quotations from parents illustrate
the book which offers crucial insights into the experience of
parents as they struggle to cope with the chaotic disruption that
affects every member of the household, desperately seeking a reason
for the crying and a cure to end the misery. The positive effects
of supportive interventions are highlighted, together with specific
messages that may be important to enhance parents’ ability to cope.
The text will be of particular interest to health visitors and
other community health care professionals who offer support and
advise to parents in the home or in the clinic.
