The Breastfeeding Survival Guide: Latch, Supply, and Surviving the First Six Weeks

Breastfeeding can feel overwhelming, especially in those early weeks when you're learning to latch, wondering if your baby is getting enough, and running on little sleep. This calm, evidence-based guide walks you through exactly what to expect from day one through week six. You'll find clear, step-by-step instructions on achieving a deep latch, boosting your milk supply, and recognizing your baby's hunger cues. It also provides gentle guidance for navigating common challenges like engorgement, nipple pain, and cluster feeding, plus practical tips for pumping, storing milk, and involving your partner. Warm, non-judgmental, and rooted in the latest recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Mayo Clinic, this book helps you build confidence and protect your own wellbeing during the most intense weeks of new parenthood.
