| Professional Review: |
| From North Americas foremost baby and childcare experts, the newest addition to the bestselling Sears Parenting Librarythe new breastfeeding bible for nursing mothers. In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in breastfeeding. Yet first-time mothers often lack the support and the knowledge they need. Many of the available books fail to address the practical challenges that confront many women (especially women who work outside the home) when they choose to breastfeed. For these women, The Breastfeeding Book is a godsendwith comprehensive, reassuring, authoritative information on: how to get started, increasing your milk supply, breastfeeding in absentia, and making sure that your nursing baby gets the nutrition he/she needs. Taking a realistic, contemporary approach, the Searses bring an age-old practice completely up to date. |

 Written on October 1, 2007 Summary: Good How to Book I read many breastfeeding books in preparation for the birth of my daughter. This one was okay. The actual how to's of breastfeeding were great. I could have done without the long chapter on the greatness of breastfeeding and ills of formula. I didn't find it very helpful for planning for my return to work and pumping. The short chapter on weaning was not very informative at all. Like another reader said it went into a lot of toddler nursing info and focused more on letting the baby lead weaning. It really won't help any mother who is trying to wean by her own choice. Written on September 23, 2007 Summary: Good technical advice, but controversial style could be defeating or harmful for some Following the birth of my first child, I found this book incredibly helpful with technical questions regarding latch-on, the mechanics of milk supply and demand, etc. The book became an important reference for me, esp. during the first several months. Plus, I appreciated the scientific explanations of lactation, thus 4 stars. The drawback of the book is that it promotes a style of parenting/breastfeeding which, in my opinion, may be simultaneously defeating for moms (physically and emotionally) and definitely not more beneficial for babies than a less "freeform" style. Many (including our pediatrician) argue that maintaining a flexible nursing schedule is actually better for the health of baby and mom than nursing every time baby cries. Mothering a newborn is stressful enough, but the Sears' parenting/breastfeeding style unneccessarily adds to the stress exponentially, in my opinion. Overall, definitely worth the read. Written on August 16, 2007 Summary: Great Resource! This has been one of the best resources for me. I'm a new mom and it's been great having a book to refer to if I can't get in touch with my Le Leche League leader. There is some repeat information if you already have The Baby Book as well, but I still think it's worth it to get this one. This would be a great gift for a mom to be. Good luck! It's worth all of the effort!  Written on June 20, 2007 Summary: Best Book in my Breastfeeding Collection I'm a 2nd time breastfeeding mom - currently nursing my 6 month old. In the early months of my pregnancy I found this book to be a great refresher - easy to read & full of great info. and tips. After I had my daughter, I kept coming back to this book as a reference point & I truly believe that this book has greatly helped me to be the confident breastfeeding mom that I am today. I would recommend this book to any new mom who is considering breastfeeding or has already decided to breastfeed. It will be a great help. :) A great companion book that I would also recommend is the "New Mother's Guide to Breastfeeding" by the American Academy of Pediatrics Written on June 2, 2007 Summary: Informative but VERY repetative I think this book is readable and user friendly, but much of the content in there is repeated over and over. I get the sense that with an excellent editor, it could have been pared down to at least half the size. That said, I found it to be very helpful-- and one of the best books I looked at on how to breastfeed an infant. Ideally, we'd not need books to learn how to breastfeed, but..... this is a good choice if you have no idea what breastfeeding is all about. It makes an excellent companion to the Sears' "The Baby Book," "The Pregnancy Book," and "The Birth Book." If you're thinking ever remotely of natural childbirth, "The Birth Book" is an absolute MUST. |
