Customer Reviews

quickness and quality

My book arrived promptly within a few days and was in great condition. I was very pleased with the service.

Great for a first time mom!

I absolutely could not have lived without this book when I was nursing my son. I read the entire book before he was born, and then used the book as a reference in the hospital and after we returned home. Frequently I would find myself supporting my son with one arm, and holding this book in the other. This book remained on my nightstand for almost a year! I highly recommend this book for anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding their child. If you're interested in learning more from Amy Spangler - check out her website [..] - it's great, too!

Wonderful resource for any new mom

It doesn't matter if you are a first time mother or if you are a mom of your third baby...you will use this book!!! There are always questions about breastfeeding and sometimes you need answers at times of the day (or night) when you can't call someone. Amy's book is perfect at these times...very easy to reference and so helpful. I love it and use it constantly!

Awesome Guide and Reference Book for Breastfeeding

This is the best reference book for any nursing mom. I have used it constantly while nursing my son. The chapters are concise and complete--something a mother up at 2am with questions and a screaming newborn needs. The drawings were very helpful in trying to figure out how to position the baby; the chapter for fathers provided a thorough explaination about their part in the breastfeeding relationship; and the chapters on milk expression and storage give exact information that a busy mom needs to read. The great part about the book is that if you only have time to read what you need, you can find it easily and get the information. It's a book that I couldn't have done without.

Clear no nonsense answers to your questions

I am a new (expectant) Mom with no experience breastfeeding. This book had the answers I was looking for with simple easy to understand pictures. This book answered questions for me I had posed to my OB/GYN but, for some reason, he couldn't communicate the answers to me in as concise a fashion as this book! I think this book is a wonderful resource. It's a fairly quick read and seems to address all the questions/problems you may face while breastfeeding.
