Say goodbye to stressful schedules, painful latching, and worries over milk supply.

With the help of personal anecdotes and color photos from real moms, Rapley and Murkett explain how to:
• Get breastfeeding up and running in the first few weeks
• Hold your baby so that he can feed effectively
• Express and store milk efficiently
• Avoid or remedy sore nipples, mastitis, and other problems
