Really good book for first-time breastfeeders and a good refresher for anyone who hasn't breastfeed in awhile; good chapters on common problems, weaning, special situations (like baby in the hospital)

I found this book extremely helpful as a new mother. It is easy to read, informative, and thorough. I used it frequently night and day. The only thing it did not do is tell you what to do with specific problems, like a plugged duct. I recommend this for any new mother!
