A breastfeeding mother's essential item by B. Addison (Anderson, IN USA) 5 Stars
October 14, 2009
This is a fantastic book. I had supply issues and it really helped me out. I think it should be on any new mother's bookshelf and at the price offered from Amazon it's a steal.

At Last! Hope for those of us who really don't make enough milk by D. Fontenette (Los Angeles, CA USA) 5 Stars
October 12, 2009
Even if the information in this book doesn't help you to increase your milk production, it will help you to come to terms with what you can do, and let's you know you are not alone. A must read for anyone who has struggled with milk production.

Awesome! A great read even if you don't have low supply! by kelbel3 5 Stars

I had issues with low supply with all 3 of my kiddos. This book is so awesome! Tons of helpful info and tips. I think it's a great read even if you don't have low supply. I learned so much more about breastfeeding than anything else I've read. Includes great info about hormones, factors than can contribute to low supply and of course, how to make more milk.

A must for low supply challenges by J. Schrecengost 5 Stars
August 05, 2009
This book is a must if you are having low supply issues. Not only does it have good solid advice on what you can do to help your situation; it also addresses the emotional side of the issue.

Great resource for Moms who are having trouble by D. Hawkey 5 Stars
July 13, 2009
This is a great book! I had no problems nursing my first daughter but when my second came around I had terrible latch and supply problems. This book breaks it down for you and gives you clear advice. I've used it as a reference guide and it's been so helpful! It also really doesn't hurt that Martha Sears (the Sears books are my "go to" for parenting advice) wrote the foreword for it. Highly recommended!
