Book Reviews of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding: Seventh Revised Edition (La Leche League International Book)
Book Review: disinformation
Summary: 1 Stars
I was sorely disappointing in reading just the first chapter. Information relayed in the book as to epidural effects on breastfeeding was used as a scare tactic as was the pushing natural delivery.
I was most disappointed because this is a group that comes highly recommended and yet presents opinions as facts that are in direct contrast to the Mayo Clinic.
It was a waste of $13.
Book Review: GREAT resource
Summary: 5 Stars
You know the LLL is the number one agency for breastfeeding resource and this is THEIR book. LOTS of info for those women who are undertaking this labor of love and want to be ready.Book Review: Not very helpful for new moms
Summary: 3 Stars
Following the birth of my first child, I had lots of questions about breastfeeding, despite my attendance of a breastfeeding class and appointments with a lactation consultant. This book provides some motivation to breastfeed, but did not answer many of my questions, esp. technical ones regarding supply/demand, latch-on problems, etc.
Instead I recommend the Sears' breastfeeding book or The Nursing Mother's Companion by Huggins.
Book Review: Every breastfeeding moms bible!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used this book when my 7 yr old was born, actually after reading so many conflicting books, I NEEDED this book. Now my neighbor has a new baby, & I purchased this book for her. You just have to read what you need to know, don't take heart to some of the things the book will advise. La Leche can come on strong, but they have good intentions, and the book is one of them! Definately a good guide for new moms, or neighbors helping new moms! :-)Book Review: The Breastfeeding Book Every Woman Needs
Summary: 5 Stars
Trust me, I read them all before my son was born. This is the one that got me through those 2am crises and supported me through our entire breastfeeding experience from birth to child-led weaning. Its solid information with good backing from a variety of professionals.
