Essential guide to breastfeeding and the early years of parenthood. Not just a "how to" about nursing, this book covers many topics related to parenting an infant and toddler, including nutrition, discipline/guidance, sleep issues for baby and toddler, the marital relationship, sibling issues, and more. An asset to the whole family.

I would reccomend this book to anyone who is or plans to or is just interested in breastfeeding. And to everyone else as well. This was a constant read during the first few weeks of my baby's life, I kept it right next to the chair I nursed in.
