I've just seen your response on your other thread :)
Food of Love by Kate Evans

NHS Pregnancy/Birth to 5 if you want detailed descriptions of latching

did you get given that or read online?

My HV hasnt given me one..

The NHS one? Was given that and afaik you still are but I suppose they might have been cut. I will have a look around as if I can find mine I'll happily send it to you.
However, if you are having problems you should be getting RL help - are there any bf groups near you? Is your HV any good?
Are you being treated for thrush?

The Politics of Breastfeeding - do not be put off by the title: it is fab, inspiring, informative and confidence inspiring. I really wish I'd read it before I had DS1. It will also make you angry though...

For practical advice re latching etc I like Dr Jack Newman's website and Kellymom.

The Baby Book by Dr Sears is non-prescriptive and matches my more touchy-feely approach to looking after young babies. A bit annoyingly American though.

Different books/approaches will agree with different people.

Yy to food of love

Bestfeeding - not sure it's by

Re baby books - what mothers do, especially when it looks like nothing

oh yes the politics is brilliant - is an 'interest' rather than a 'help' book but it gives you loads of motivation

Yeah im asking this topic for interest more than help... thanks for your replies.

The food of love is a brilliant read

General baby book - Best book for me is Gina Ford. Dont care about anyone elses opinion but what she does makes sence and the routines do work. Both my boys are a sucess of GF.
