Breastfeeding and Human Lactation [With CDROM]

This comprehensive manual/textbook for Lactation Professionals is very thorough and informative. It touches on just about everything you need to know about lactation, breastfeeding, pre-natal and peri-natal care and the mother-baby dyad. The full-color photos are a bonus! Jan Riordan is a renowned Lactation Consultant and Professor at Wichita State University. She also has a background of a La Leche League Leader, so she has real-life experience to draw on as well as in-depth medical experience. I recommend this book for any LC or LC to be.

This book covers everything you need to know when sitting for a breastfeeding test or exam. I used it a lot and still continue to. Who knew there was so much to learn about something so natural!!!

I found this book amazing. It was the ideal prep for me to study for the Lactation IBLCE exam. It is full of research and very detailed in all aspects of breastfeeding and lactation issues.

I'm studying for my IBCLC certification and this is providing with me with great info.

I love this book. It's well organized and easy to read even though some info is quite technical. I'm taking the IBCLC exam soon and out of several books I'm using for review, this is my favorite.
