Book Reviews of The Breastfeeding Answer Book
Book Review: The Breastfeeding Answer Book
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an excellent, comprehensive guide to breastfeeding management. Up to date, indepth information is literally at your fingertips! The content of this book is easy to work through (well indexed) and well referenced for further research. I would rate the content as 5 stars, but the binding is a bit difficult to work with. The cover wants to pull off the coils with frequent use.Book Review: Published with a spiral binding so that it can lay open flat
Summary: 5 Stars
Now in a newly revised, updated, and expanded third edition, The Breastfeeding Answer Book from the La Leche League International is a thorough and "mother friendly" guide to everything a woman needs to know about breastfeeding, from positioning the baby, to how to wean their infant at the right time, to dealing with possible difficulties such as newborn jaundice. Published with a spiral binding so that it can lay open flat when the reader is busy with both hands, The Breastfeeding Answer Book is an exhaustive, thorough, accessible, reliable, highly recommended resource for all new mothers seeking to successfully breastfeed their babies.Book Review: The best all inclusive breastfeeding book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read other books and this by far is the BEST one I have come across. It answers ANY question or concern I may have. I have found the answers I need in a matter of minutes and even when health professionals haven't a clue what to tell me. It has great information about pumping and storing breastmilk, what medications affect/don't affect your breastmilk, and so many other things that have helped me. This book is written like a textbook and instead of saying "you", it refers to you as "the mother." It is very easy reading, and I recommend this to a first time breastfeeder or a mom like myself who has breastfed before but didn't have all the information I needed. The book was very encouraging and interesting!Book Review: LOVE this!
Summary: 5 Stars
HI. I am writing this review because I absolutely love this book. I got it after taking a non profit groups volunteer phone counseling class for breastfeeding counselors, and it was awesome to have to look at. I used this for myself as well as moms that I counseled with breastfeeding. This book is an amazing source of information from problems with breastfeeding, to the jaundiced baby breaking down & explaining bilirubin levels to you, as well as proper positioning, thrush, sore nipples, relactation, adoptive lactation! Tons and Tons of information that any breastfeeding mother, volunteer breastfeeding counselor, IBCLC, or DR/Nurse would find as honest practical advice! I have used this with now 2 breastfed children and countless new moms!Book Review: Excellent info: Easy to Read; Check it out from the library
Summary: 5 Stars
This is absolutely the best book on the market for helping breastfeeding moms. Completely non-judgemental and very informative, with details that 99% of other books leave out. This book will help the nursing mother succeed and doesn't pander down to a lower intelligence level. This book is currently being revised again to include more info on breast reduction surgery and other "new" breastfeeding circumstances. Really helpful if you work with nursing moms and moms-to-be. If you are a mother who doesn't plan to work with other mothers, borrow a copy from the library or your local La Leche League group. I am a doula/childbirth educator and refer to it weekly. You can find it on eBay once in a while.
