This book answers all your questions and some you didn't even know you had. I bought this book because I am pregnant with my first child and well I understood that breastfeeding is a good Idea I didn't know why. And I was so worried I wouldn't know how, and this book lets me know that its normal to have those kind of thoughts and fears and for every bad "what if" I could think of this book gave me the positive way to handle it or it explained why such things aren't really things to worry about. This book is better than all other breastfeeding books and websites I've been to (besides the La Leche League's webpage) because it doesn't approach breastfeeding as a new occurance it explained that breastfeeding is NORMAL and right, not something to hide in the bathroom. It doesn't boast or tell you, if you stop your a failure it supports you to help you prevent the self doubt that causes so many women to quit before they even start.Read full review
