Do we have any first time “moms-to-be” around? If so, I’d like to pass along a brand new book called Mama Knows Breast; A Beginner’s Guide To Breastfeeding, written by Andi Silverman. It will be on sale to the public on September 15, 2007 and is now available for pre-order on Amazon.

“Breastfeeding may be natural, but it certainly isn’t easy. That’s why Andi Silverman wrote Mama Knows Breast, a beginner’s guide that’s full of friendly, frank, and reassuring advice. Readers will discover essential information on breastfeeding techniques, baby holds, and medical conditions. They’ll also learn the straight scoop on gnawing infants, unexpected leaks, ill-fitting clothes, and bewildered spouses. Other topics include:

The pros and the cons of breastfeeding
When, where, and how to breastfeed in public
Feeling sexy in a nursing bra
Breastfeeding at the office

Written by a mom who has been there, and packed with anecdotes by women from a variety of backgrounds, Mama Knows Breast is a beautifully illustrated gift for new mothers everywhere.”

This was a very easy read and a definite must-have for any first time mama. Let me know if you are expecting baby #1 or have recently had your first, by commenting on this thread and I will enter you into a random drawing to win the book.
