Book Description:

This sensitive, in-depth resource for mothers is packed with information regarding what the La Leche League considers to be the optimal food source for babies: breast milk. Twenty chapters detail every imaginable aspect of breastfeeding, including the first few months, returning to work, family life, weaning, and why breastfeeding is the best nutritional choice. Sections on "Avoiding and Treating Sore Nipples," "Choosing to Stay Home," "Toddler Nursing," and "What if My Baby is Premature?" are just a few of the topics addressed. The book concludes with a informative chapter on the origins of the La Leche League, and an appendix filled with resources of every kind.

Accepted by the La Leche League group. Seems to have the same info as the 7th edition, I scanned through both before I bought it. Some info is outdated in my opinion, but it was all the same from edition to edition.It does tend to answer questions at 3 am when all your friends are asleep and you hate to wake them with a problem. Definitely a good one to keep on your shelf for reference.
