what parents are saying
If you can just wink at the old-fashioned tone and slightly judgy-ness on breastfeeding, this book is a super-helpful primer on breastfeeding. (Jul 11, 2015)

I have this book on a recommendation from my doctor and I’m so glad I read it. Breastfeeding is something I was really nervous about, but I feel more equipped now that I’ve read this. Jan 19, 2020

Highly recommend. So helpful for the first time mom who wants to breastfeed and get it right. I will keep this book forever. Apr 22, 2019

Helpful, though as a first-time mom hands-on experience from other mothers is the most helpful. Jul 08, 2016
This book is a must read for any new mother, or mother that has not breastfed previously. Jan 25, 2016

I've referred to this book so many times with 2 kids. My first was not a great nurser and it had helpful info re: plugged ducts, pumping; I had oversupply with 2nd and this helped there too! Jul 28, 2014
lots of helpful information Jul 24, 2014
This was educational to help me prepare for BFing. May 14, 2014
Less helpful than kellymom.com and la leche league websites. I should've bought the LLL book instead. Feb 18, 2014
Easy to understand layout if not as comprehensive as The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding (the official LLL book). This was a good chairside reference guide for me. Nov 20, 2013
