Apologies for posting here - just for traffic..

My lovely DIL is expecting her first baby in the summer. She very much wants to breastfeed. I initially didn’t find it easy, but was completely supported by ‘Breast is Best’ (40 years ago). So my question is: what is the best breastfeeding book now please?

Also baby lead weaning.

Has she asked for a book? I learnt everything that helped me on here and YouTube.

I got one called "the womanly art of breastfeeding" utterly cringe title but apparently it's really good?! I never really used it. I found everything I needed on the internet. Kellymom is the most comprehensive breastfeeding website I came across.

The babyled weaning cookbook by Jill somebody was ok but again rarely used as I favoured the internet

Agree that the kellymom website is really comprehensive and helpful.
