The ABCs of Breastfeeding: A New Book Release

A new breastfeeding book debuts next week. The ABCs of Breastfeeding: Everything a Mom Needs to Know for a Happy Nursing Experience is written by neonatal nurse practitioner and internationally board certified lactation consultant Stacey H. Rubin.

The website for the book offers a sample chapter on “The Signals That Will Let You Know When to Feed Your Baby”. The book appears to have an easy-to-read style peppered with stories and examples from the author’s interaction with her clients. I found myself nodding in agreement with the Rubin’s recommendations. How nice to read the following passage:

Libraryjournal.com reviewer Rebecca Raszewski also enjoyed Rubin’s stories, saying:

Her fascinating client stories, interweaved throughout, effectively illustrate the issues and success of new and experienced breastfeeding mothers alike; end notes from mostly medical and nursing journals titles support her content.

Raszewski concluded:

A solid alternative to the classic Womanly Art of Breastfeeding (7th revised ed. 2004), this will serve as both an informative and a reassuring book to any mother.

The The ABCs of Breastfeeding: Everything a Mom Needs to Know for a Happy Nursing Experience is available for order now on Amazon.com.

    Oh, how I WISH I’d had this book BEFORE the birth of my son. Sounds like a great read. Thankfully, it’s never too late to learn more about nursing.

    Thanks for the heads-up!
