Lisa Marasco and I are proud to announce that our new book, "The Breastfeeding Mother's Guide to Making More Milk" published by McGraw-Hill, is now available at all major booksellers in North America and Europe and online at both Amazon.com:

http://www.amazon.com/Breastfeeding-Mother...5167&sr=8-1

and our own website (where you can get an autographed copy):

http://www.makingmoremilk.com

This new book includes extensive information about methods (some old, lots new) to increase milk production, as well as information on additional causes of low milk production that can contribute to BFAR supply problems. BFAR is mentioned, but only briefly. The main focus is:

* What is and isn't normal
* How to know if baby is getting enough
* How to supplement to maximize milk production
* Causes of low supply
* Ways to increase supply
* Increasing when working
* Special situations (adoption, relactation, multiples, premies)
* Emotional experiences of having low supply

We really hope you like the book! If you do, please consider writing a review for us on Amazon -- we need reviews so other mothers and healthcare professionals will want to buy the book!

Thanks to all of you for your incredible support during the four years we've been working on the book!

I havn't yet had a reduction. What book would be valuable to read before a reduction?
Thanks!

Defining Your Own Success: Breastfeeding after Reduction Surgery by Diana West.

I can't see anything on this forum. I have registered and my account was validated, but I still can't see anything..
Can somebody help?

Did you select this option?
I am supporting a breastfeeding friend, daughter, wife, or client who has had breast reduction surgery, other chest or breast surgery, or who has low milk production.
If so, this is the access that would have been granted. If you fit another of the categories, please let us know.

Thanks for your reply!
I think I fit another category. I'm looking for more information about breastfeeding after a reduction, because I'm seriously considering to get a breast reduction myself.

If you start a thread here, members will answer with all kinds of feedback on the benefits and challenges of BR surgery. It seems that posts that were in this forum and addressed this issue have dropped off. I would suggest starting a thread here with all of your questions and concerns >
