Book Reviews of Bestfeeding: How to Breastfeed Your BabyBook Review: Highly Recommend! Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book with my 2nd child--I think if I would have had it with my first I would have had a lot less difficulty. I love all the photos--you can only get so much out of a drawing. And the tone of the book is so conversational, it is a very easy read. The first six weeks of breastfeeding is a time of learning, for both mother and child, and this book covers the the many aspects of it. From positioning to latching on to blocked ducts and engorgement, this book has it all. The author instills such confidence in the mother! I loved it from cover to cover.
Book Review: WAS having problems... Summary: 5 Stars
I spoke with a lactation consultant at the hospital before I was released with my first daughter, and thought I had breastfeeding down pat. Boy was I wrong! I was really sore in no time and had a lot of frustration. I was hesitant to go to the consultant again for fear of being judged by such a "pro". I bought this book, took it's advice of having my husband compare what I was doing to the book and poof! my problem was recognized and solved! I would recommed this book to anyone who is having problems breastfeeding but really wants to continue to try it.
Book Review: Pumps Not Discussed Summary: 1 Stars
You would think a book of this length, entirely on breastfeeding, would discuss the use of pumps. However, the author wrote they do not discuss pumps because there are other books that do. Apparently they want you to go buy another book specifically on pumping. Hand expression is discussed because "it doesn't cost anything". I found the book to be very informative on how to breastfeed and the illustrations are very helpful, but that doesn't help me when I return to work!
Book Review: Best photos of good latch Summary: 5 Stars
I have used this book for years in my OB/GYN practice to show pregnant mom's what breastfeeding is supposed to look like. The photos have really helped the mother whose previous experience was painful to see what a good latch is and, just as importantly, is NOT. This book doesn't replace learning from real breastfeeding mothers, like at La Leche League meetings, but the photos and information are superior to other books for showing you how to breastfeed.
Book Review: I loved this book Summary: 5 Stars
This book is not only really informative, but really well organized. It's easy to look up what you need when you need it. Also, there are a ton of pictures, and they're really helpful. This book is a great resource for anyone who is interested in breastfeeding, whether it's to find information related to a specific problem, or just to get more information. Anyone can learn from this book, whether breastfeeding comes easily or not.
