When you’ve just had a new baby it seems everyone around you suddenly becomes an expert – particularly when it comes to how to feed your newborn. It’s an emotional time for new parents when female hormonal balance is skewed, sleep hard to come by and struggling with the pros and cons of how to feed your baby can have a profoundly negative impact on a mother’s mental health and sense of self-worth. Here’s where Olivia Hinge steps in with her no-judgement, evidence-based guide to help you make the right choices for you and your baby based on fact and not lack of support or misinformation.

Description

A go-to guide for parents seeking evidence-based advice for navigating the initial (and often wobbly) stages of feeding and nurturing a newborn.

Recognised for her reassuring and encouraging voice, trusted by parents and midwives alike, this book is your one-stop, supportive guide to feeding your baby, no matter which route you take: breastfeeding, expressed milk, formula milk or a combination.

There’s no wrong or right when it comes to feeding – it’s what works for you and your baby. This handy resource with advice on feeding cues, length and frequency of feeds, positioning and attachment for breastfeeding, how to supplement if needed, pumping, bottle-feeding and teat size, mixed feeding pros and cons, plus a truly comprehensive section dealing with challenges, ensures the key information is distilled with clarity. But more than that this book is delivered with compassion, making sure we, as parents, get that warm reassuring hug that we’re good enough.
