    5.0 out of 5 stars Must Have Resource!

    I read this book as part of my lactation course. It is an excellent resource that discusses many key subjects lactating mothers face and provides real-life solutions to provide mothers in need. It is an easy read that is very helpful to those new to lactation, especially paired with a lactation rotation.
