Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding, also for you A book about breastfeeding, you have it in your hands for a reason. How nice that you have found this book! Whether you are expecting, just want to know more about breastfeeding or want to stop breastfeeding: we are here for you! We are happy to explain to you how breastfeeding works. And how it can work for you, your baby and your family. Breastfeeding may be very natural, it is not always self-evident. You can encounter things that make feeding uncomfortable, painful or inconvenient for you. There are many things that you can be insecure about. How long does a feeding last? How often is normal to feed? How do you know if your baby is getting enough? Why does your baby want to drink again after an hour? How do you get more sleep? When can you start solid food? How do you combine breastfeeding with work? How do you reduce feeding? And when do you stop feeding? This book answers all these questions and many more. The combination of science and experiences of many who came before you make this book clear, complete and useful. The many photos and illustrations make it easy to read and clear. Who are we? We are the Dutch-speaking section of LLLI: La Leche League Nederland and La Leche League Vlaanderen. We are all volunteers with extensive experience in breastfeeding. We hope that with the information in this book and the help and support of our volunteers, you can achieve your personal breastfeeding goal. and then you discover how special breastfeeding can be!
