A review by maraihrcke
The Nursing Mother's Companion, 7th Edition, with New Illustrations: The Breastfeeding Book Mothers Trust, from Pregnancy Through Weaning by Kathleen Huggins

2.0

There is a great deal of information that I found useful in this book. Granted, I am only six month pregnant, and haven’t had a chance to try breastfeeding. I like the recommendations and breastfeeding troubleshooting sections, where you can flip to the baby’s age and the issue you’re having, but I did find the author’s tone very preachy.

This is particularly an issue in the beginning, when she’s discussing natural childbirth. This did gradually get better as I progressed through the book. Overall, I’m glad I read it, but I would hesitate to read anything else she has written or to recommend it to a friend.
