Breastfeeders Anonymous is a light-hearted, informative and easy-to-read book, perfect for new mums or pregnant women hoping to breastfeed. It is not a DIY Guide to Breastfeeding (although there is a chapter on the 'Mechanics of Breastfeeding); it's a support group in a book, in which a number of mums relate the good, bad and ugly of breastfeeding. In addition to the personal stories, Breastfeeders Anonymous also includes:

• Information about issues relating to breastfeeding, specific types of breastfeeding and a chapter on breastfeeding problems
• Frequently Asked Questions with answers by Lactation Consultant, Joy Anderson
• A chapter on bottle feeding, which showcases the medical reasons why some women can't breastfeed
• A section on breastfeeding related issues such as dummies, sleep, guilt, weight loss and biting
• A section entitled 'The Poli-tits of Breastfeeding,' which explores issues such as human milk banking, feminism, weaning and what men have to do with breastfeeding
• An overview of the history, culture and politics of breastfeeding over the last five hundred years
• A section exploring the mechanics of breastfeeding, which also includes resources such as infant weight charts, websites and equipment
• Beautiful breastfeeding photos
• 28 breastfeeding myths busted
