This candid collection of real breastfeeding stories takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the full range of emotions and circumstances that make up the nursing experience.
Compelling, moving, and diverse, the stories in "The Breastfeeding Café "---from women all over the country---reveal the nursing relationship in all its complexity and seek to create a culture in which breastfeeding women are visible, accepted, and valued. "The Breastfeeding Café " isn't a how-to manual on breastfeeding; instead, it offers a thoughtful forum for women to share their experiences with others. Approaching nursing as a feminist issue and one that is very important to child rearing, the book embraces the wide spectrum of women's experiences breastfeeding their children. Organised thematically and framed within a social and cultural context by a sociologist and former nursing mother of two, "The Breastfeeding Café " moves the subject of women nursing their children out from behind closed doors.
A must-read for clinicians, breastfeeding consultants, and both new and expectant mothers who are curious about the nursing experience in all its variety.
