I agree, I'm a BIG fan of the dream feed technique. A
10pm feeding which will get them through the night to
5am'ish, then eventually they'll sleep in a little
later, and you'll wean them off the Dream Feed.

I think the term "Ferberizing" has been misused quite a
bit. While I'm not one to read lots of parenting books
and like to trust my instinct more often than not, the
one book I do recommend that you read is Dr. Ferber's
book.
http://www.amazon.com/Solve-Your-Childs-Sleep-Problems/dp/0743201639/ref=rec_dp_2
Once you get a better understanding of how sleep works
and how babies needs are constantly changing, you'll
likely get a better idea of what to do and when.
There's a time and a place for CIO (if that's your
thing), and he'll explain all that. There's also a
chapter on multiples which I'll be sure to read once
the babinos arrive. We had a big sleep regression
around 6 months with my fist singleton, and I realized
after reading the book was because I'd feed her in the
middle of the night, her organs were working overtime
to digest the food, when they're really supposed to be
resting. After about 3 nights of rocking her instead of
feeding her, we were golden. Anyhow, the book is really
awesome and flexible to different parenting styles, and
I still refer to it in figure out nap schedules,
bedtimes, etc. as my LO grows.

We have been seeing Dr Rothman on Ocean Ave near City
College in Mission Terrace, we highly recommend him.
Reading books about going to the dentist really helped
us. Describing what to expect, playing dentist at home
to make it fun, etc. Good Luck!

We live in Bernal Heights, and drive 17 minutes
(including free and plentiful parking) to Shoreview
Dental in Pacifica. Dr. Sepi Vafi is the pediatric
dentist (she and her husband -- who handles the
grown-ups -- run the practice). The practice was
referred to me by one of my longest-time friends who
has two boys and lives in Pacifica.Dr. Vafi and her
team are super kid-friendly, and have a
special-for-kids care zone (the practice designed their
new building just last year). A video library keeps the
kids entertained, and the staff is well-trained, has
excellent bedside manner, great with kids and parents,
and our kids teeth are well taken care of.Sepi Vafi,

738-2100info@shoreviewdental.net (Please tell them we
sent you!)FYI, we considered Kids Smiles, but they
weren't in our insurance care provider network -- which
is OK for standard care, but what happens when the kid
cracks a tooth, has a cavity, or needs additional
dental care? Potential costs abound.Best,- Judy(Ella &

Kind of across town (Laurel Village), but I LOVE Dr.
Jay and Dr. Nancy at http://www.sfkidsdentist.com/ My 2
1/2 YO LOVES going to the dentist and brushing her
teeth. I highly recommend starting early as it's always
a pretty positive and painless procedure early on then
and they won't associate it with something scary (which
will come eventually).
