When I received this book, the first page started at page 51! It seems that nothing was done to the book (regarding pages being torn out) since the bind was still in tact... probably just a defective book. But it would have been nice for them to check the book before sending it out.

A must-have for every nursing mother - a timeless treasure of information on this almost-lost art; would also recommend "Baby Wise" for getting the child on a schedule early on that will allow for more flexibility for the family.

Outdated and sexist by R. Weatherly (Alexandria, VA)

Couldn't stand this book. I'm all for breastfeeding and promoting it when a woman wants to, or is having trouble. This book doesn't really seem to have been updated since it's initial publication. Felt very preachy. I have found much better, more modern resources on breast feedind and while La Leche League touts their support to new mothers, I made three phone calls to reps in my area and never received a return call. If you are still interested in the book, check it out from the Library in your area. Or email me, I'll send you mine.
