Breastfeeding

Więcej o książce

Those who choose to breastfeed often encounter a troubling lack of effective advice and practical support. Their initial commitment can quickly diminish amid conflicting solutions that fail to deliver results. What should be a simple and natural experience can become distressing, leading many to abandon breastfeeding altogether. This book offers innovative strategies for preventing and addressing common breastfeeding issues, drawing on over 45 years of combined experience with more than 30,000 mothers and their babies. It aims to empower mothers by addressing questions that have stumped lactation consultants and doctors, often resulting in the sentiment, “We tried everything, but I just couldn’t breastfeed.” Many mothers face challenges such as a fussy baby, rejection of the breast, or concerns about weight gain, often without receiving real solutions. Misleading reassurances like “don’t worry about breastfeeding” can obscure the need for genuine help. This book provides clarity on crucial topics, including the initiation of breastfeeding, milk production in the early days, strategies for success, and the implications of modern formulas. Dr. Jack Newman shares his extensive expertise from his work at The International Breastfeeding Centre and offers an interactive version of the original text, complete with links to valuable resources, videos, studies, and further reading.
