DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhen breastfeeding does not go as hoped, mothers often have feelings of loss, sadness, anger, fear, failure, guilt and self-blame. Mothers then say they are heart-broken, crushed, and even devastated. These painful emotions double a mother's risk for postpartum depression. Yet, our healthcare system does not have guidelines in place to help mothers prevent the escalating emotions of Breastfeeding Grief. We have no "plan B" which guides mothers to promote optimal bonding when their breastfeeding goals are not met. And our mental health experts do not understand how to guide mothers in their emotional healing, so mothers can fully enjoy their baby with renewed confidence. Hilary Jacobson, author of "Mother Food: A Breastfeeding Diet Guide with Lactogenic Foods and Herbs" is a holistic breastfeeding specialist and clinical hypnotherapist. Her easy-to-read book "Healing Breastfeeding Grief" contains the essential information mothers need to navigate their way back into a positive sense of self, and an intimate connection and bond with their baby.

In this book you will find: -How to choose, prepare, feed and store formula-including the big questions- how much and how often?! -How to switch between at-breast feeding and topping up in ways which can help to reduce the chances of bottle preference. -Quick glance "how to combi feed" sections for many scenarios ranging from not wanting to breastfeed in public or to give Mum an occasional "night off" to regular daily bottles due to weight gain worries or long term medical conditions. -How to care for your breasts and maintain a comfortable milk supply while mixed feeding. -How to avoid the "top-up trap" of giving more and more formula when you only wanted to introduce a bottle once a day. -Rebuilding a milk supply if you want combi-feeding to be temporary. -Basic breastfeeding support and information to help you overcome the most common causes of unwanted combination feeding-including the myths around frequent feeding and low milk supply, and how to overcome pain plus where you can get extra help. -Real-life stories and quotes from families who have been where you are now. -A section for premature babies or those with extra needs.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is a practical guide for medical practitioners as they navigate through breastfeeding problems that occur in day-to-day practice. If mothers have a breastfeeding complication they are often directed to their GP. In complex situations, medical staff will be making decisions around what treatment plan to follow and whether a mother can keep breastfeeding. In recent years there has been growing evidence that medical professionals often advise mothers to stop breastfeeding while undergoing treatment, when in reality this was not a necessary step. In a time when breastfeeding rates are decreasing, it is important that medical professionals give accurate advice and support a mother’s choice to breastfeed if the situation allows it. A Guide to Supporting Breastfeeding for the Medical Profession includes contributions from a wide range of medical professionals and each chapter is written with the practitioner in mind. Contributors include GPs, paediatricians, neonatologists, lactation specialists and midwives. Doctors have a vital role to play in supporting and facilitating breastfeeding, and without the appropriate knowledge they can often inadvertently sabotage it. This book will be of interest to GPs and paediatricians as well as nurse prescribers, midwives and health visitors.
