About this listen

It's no secret that breastfeeding is the normal, healthy way to nourish and nurture your baby. Dedicated to supporting nursing and expectant mothers, the internationally respected La Leche League has set the standard for educating and empowering mothers in this natural art for generations. Now their classic best-selling guide has been retooled, refocused, and updated for today's mothers and lifestyles.

Working mothers, stay-at-home moms, single moms, and mothers of multiples will all benefit from the book's range of nursing advice, stories, and information - from preparing for breastfeeding during pregnancy to feeding cues, from nursing positions to expressing and storing breast milk. This ultimate support bible offers:

  • Real-mom wisdom on breastfeeding comfortably
  • New insights into old approaches toward latching and attaching, ages and stages, and answers to the most-asked questions
  • Recent scientific data that highlight the many lifelong health benefits of breastfeeding
  • Helpful tips for building your support network - at home or when back at work guidance on breast health issues, weight gain, day care, colic, postpartum depression, food allergies, and medications

Very helpful

I have read several books in preparation for my first child. This one is among the best. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who desires to breastfeed. It seemed long before I bought it, but every bit was helpful.

Very informative!

I thought the performance was done very well and overall enjoyed the experience listening. A lot of it could be learned through your LC but it’s handy to have the chapters to go back to.

The grandmother you need to give you great advice

This book came to me at a time I was struggling with breastfeeding. Not only it helped with that, it has been an amazing guide to navigate motherhood, which is completely new to me. Def a breastfeeding Bible.
