Breastfeeding books?

Question

Hey mamas! 
Do any of you have any recommendations on a great breastfeeding book? There are so many, it's overwhelming. I don't want to run out and buy 5 or 6 and make myself crazy. Thank you! 💜

Answer

I actually ended up googling videos when I had my first. After reading about it, going to a class, looking at a million diagrams. That ended up doing nothing for me! The videos of how to hold a wriggling newborn, what the latch looks like, how it looks when they're swallowing, those were GOLD for me. I also saw a lactation consultant with my baby and she helped a little. But actually seeing someone else do it was the most helpful!!

Answer

I think you'll get the most out of just talking to a lactation consultant. They come around and help you when your in the hospital. FB also has lots of breastfeeding pages to join and gets lots of info. I'm going on #4, but with my first son, my cousins wife helped get my son to latch and we never had issues after that. Amazon does always have the best variety of everything though, so if check there for a book.

Answer

The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding

Or check and see if there is a LaLeche League or Lactation consultant in your area. They are more helpful than a book.
