Since I read this book while pregnant, what I especially liked in it was the description of what to expect the very first time I put baby to breast -- right after birth, that is. The descriptions of common problems that may come up (and how to deal with them) seemed clear, too. I thought it was a good introduction to breastfeeding, but I'll know just how good of an introduction it was in a few weeks, I suppose! ( )

Includes great advice about breastfeeding, but goes pretty far at insisting mothers should breastfeed at all costs, which is not always realistic, so it may make women who are struggling with breastfeeding feel worse. ( )

Interesting insights, would be a good book to have on hand for reference. ( )
