Produktbeschreibung
Women have been breastfeeding since the dawn of time so why even write a book called Breastfeeding Works? For author and lactation consultant, Robyn Noble, it is her mission to erase misconceptions about breastfeeding. In our modern world, there are many barriers preventing mothers from breastfeeding: Breastfeeding in Western countries is beset with poor advice and too little understanding of how it actually works. Health professionals' training in breastfeeding management is generally superficial. Over the past 100 years, commercial interests have subverted the truth about breastfeeding with false messages. Breastfeeding Works! cuts to the heart of how to simplify breastfeeding so that it does indeed work! This book supplies practical techniques that ensure breastfeeding is a source of joy rather than distress, right from the first feed. With diagrams and hundreds of colour photos, it offers fresh insights into the problems that can threaten breastfeeding and suggests many different ways to resolve them. Breastfeeding Works! will raise awareness of the issues surrounding breastfeeding, how these impact on outcomes and how to achieve great results that satisfy both practitioners and mothers. While primarily written for health care providers, this book is also a manual for 21st century mothers.
Autorenporträt
Robyn Noble DMLT, BAppSc(MedSc), IBCLC is the only lactation consultant in Queensland with a professional background in medical science. She was a Nursing Mothers' Counsellor for fifteen years. (NMAA is now the Australian Breastfeeding Association.) She is the mother of three children but because of a lack of appropriate information and support, did not experience normal, problem-free breastfeeding until her third baby (when she discovered NMAA!.) Robyn has been in private practice as a lactation consultant since 1990. She is the inaugural president of the Queensland Lactation Consultants' Association in 1990 (which became the Queensland branch of the Australian Lactation Consultants' Association - ALCA QLD - then eventually LCANZ.) Robyn has been involved nationally in breastfeeding education work for over 35 years.
