Breastfeeding

What is your favorite breastfeeding book?
Let us know!

"There are lots of books on breastfeeding—of the ones I've had in my hands, these are the most practical and helpful. "The Nursing Mother's Companion" saved my nursing relationship with my daughter, but it is a very "text" oriented book and is better for people who learn well from reading. "Bestfeeding: Getting Breastfeeding Right for You" has marvelous illustrations and simple "how-to" solutions to common problems that will help almost any mother breastfeed successfully. With these two books in hand, there are few problems that cannot be solved quickly and easily."
—Jennifer Rosenberg
