Can anyone recommend any books on breastfeeding

I am not due for another 12 weeks but I want to start reading up on it to try to prepare myself. I prefer books rather than a websites. Thanks for your help.

La Leche League has a book called the womanly art of breastfeeding...I have a copy from the 60's :)
Im sure you could find the newer version on half.com or something

I've used the Nursing Mother's Companion as a reference for the past 10 months, and have found it to be very helpful.

(Even if you prefer books, you should know that kellymom.com exists, its such a great site!)

I bought a great one, called The Complete Book of Breastfeeding. It has so much info, was a life save for me when I started BF. Highly recommended! Chat Icon

A Nursing Mother's Companion Guide should be in every maternity room IMO.
Working Mother/Nursing Mother was great and helped me understand how to nurse and work full-time/part-time.

I found "A Nursing Mother's Companion" very informative also.
