Lactation for the Rest of Us: A Guide for Queer and Trans Parents and Helpers

By Jacob Engelsman

Can I lactate if I've had top surgery?
When can I restart taking testosterone?
Where do I start with donor milk?
Finally, a book about lactation not geared exclusively towards cisgender women Lactation for the Rest of Us is an early addition to the literature for queer and trans people who have seen themselves left out of previous informative books on chestfeeding and lactation. Useful information is included for transmasculine parents, transfeminine parents, non-binary parents, queer parents, helpers, adoptive parents, and even cisgender male parents. Covering the induction of lactation, difficulties one may encounter with chestfeeding, expert advice, and first-person testimonials, this is the book the queer parenting community has been waiting for.
