Description
This handbook covers current thinking on successful breastfeeding and is the result of the work of a breastfeeding working group set up by the Council of the Royal College of Midwives. Subjects explored include the duration and frequency of feeds, cleanliness, weight gain, postural considerations, ways in which the midwife may help directly and the prevention of mastitis. The variety of appetites in infants is discussed and less common problems such as diabetes, anitcoagulant therapy, mammary surgery, cleft lip and cleft palate are considered.
