Sheila Kitzinger brings her knowledge and experience to light in this guide to breastfeeding.
She includes what to expect, what is normal, and what problems may arise. Kitzinger encourages the mother to involve the father in the burdens of infant care-as well as the rewards of nurturing-and to link up to a supportive network of women with children who can share both her positive and negative experiences and help her to maintain perspective during the emotional first months of a baby's life.
