Publisher's summary

Breastfeeding is the natural and healthy way to nourish your baby, yet it's not always easy. New mothers need practical information about getting off to a good start and solving breastfeeding challenges. Health professionals need this information too, because it is rarely taught in medical school. Dr. Jack Newman's Guide to Breastfeeding covers the most common problems and questions that mothers encounter: How do I help my baby to get a good latch? How can I know if my baby is getting enough milk? How can I help him get more? Can I avoid sore nipples? Will my medication affect my baby? How do I fit breastfeeding into my life when I'm so busy?

The answers are here. Dr. Jack Newman and Teresa Pitman are two of the foremost lactation experts in Canada and have helped tens of thousands of new mothers find solutions that work. In this comprehensive guide, they share the most current information about breastfeeding and provide new, effective strategies and solutions to make breastfeeding work for you.

Portrays formula as poison

There is a lot of very good information in here regarding latch and increasing milk supply, but while listening to the book, formula is portrayed as poison and healthcare professionals as trying to sabotage breastfeeding.

Excellent book!

This was a very good book in my opinion, with lots of detailed information on all types of scenarios. Also it tells the hard truth about pharmaceutical companies and the poison they call formula. Well worth the read! We're getting ready for baby number 7 and I still learned a lot from this book.

Best book I’ve read on breastfeeding

I’m a lactation consultant, and this is the most thorough (and most interesting) book I’ve read on breastfeeding. I will definitely read it again, in it’s entirety.
