Breastfeeding: A Mother's Gift

Jana Young, a Certified Childbirth Educator, reviewed the previous version “As breastmilk has been called “liquid gold,” so I would call this book a “golden nugget.”  This review is available to read at moonlily.com.

 

Another review of the previous version. “The delightful simplicity and honest enthusiasm... has won me over completely and has put her book at the very top of my list." This review is available to read at midwiferytoday.com.

 

“Author Pam Wiggins is a lactation consultant who unequivocally believes that breast is best.  The chapter on the benefits of breastfeeding contains more references to research supporting the tenets expressed than any other similar listing in print. The book’s large print is easy on the eyes and the format makes finding information quickly a breeze.  A chapter by Dr. Tom Hale about medications is a valuable bonus.”

Sue Lalieke: Review in Birth and Babies Quarterly

 

"Breastfeeding is not just a way to feed a child.  It's a way to raise a child.  Pam Wiggins knows this very well, from many years of personal experience and many more years of helping other mothers and babies.  In Breastfeeding: A Mother's Gift, a distillation of her experiences, she combines up-to-date, practical information with warmth and empathy for the mother and baby who are just beginning this elemental dance together.  And a long and lovely dance it can be!"

Diane Weissinger, IBCLC, Author

Why Should I Nurse My Baby?

"A very handy, practical guide filled with good, up-to-date information that a mother needs to know about."

Jack Newman, MD, FPHCP

 

“For little more than the cost of a few pamphlets, I can buy moms in my classes an actual BOOK on breastfeeding.  I believe a book will be kept longer, used more, and hopefully passed on to other moms in the future.”

Childbirth Educator, Michigan

 

"We use Why Should I Nurse My Baby? extensively in our state WIC program. New moms love it and we believe it is helping them decide to breastfeed and we also believe they breastfeed longer."

WIC Breastfeeding Coordinator, New Jersey

 

"Why Should I Nurse My Baby? is given to every pregnant mother who gets on WIC in our county.  It provides clear and easy to understand text and illustrations that any mother could grasp.  And what's more, the price is right!  Thank you Pam Wiggins for the contribution you are making to women everywhere."

County WIC Director, Texas

 

“Pamela  Wiggins’ book is easy-to-read, thorough and accurate.  In her concise, attractive guide, she tells us why breastfeeding is important, how to do it, what to do if you run into problems, where you should turn for help, and what you should know about breastfeeding and medications.  Breastfeeding: A Mother’s Gift should be in the home of every new mother!”
