In <i>Nursing Mother, Working Mother: The Essential Guide for Breastfeeding and Staying Close to Your Baby After You Return to Work</i>, Gale Pryor has written a nuts-and-bolts guide for nursing and working at the same time. Pryor breast-fed each of her two children while working full-time outside the home, and her experience and voice of reassurance informs this book. She makes a strong case for breast-feeding: not only is it good for your baby, but many working women find that it is the easiest way to care for their child, and for themselves. Early chapters cover breast-feeding basics. Later chapters focus on preparing to go back to work, instructions on pumping (equipment and positioning), how to manage life at home and at work, and how to cope if you "fall apart" when your baby is six months old (common among new mothers who work outside the home). The book describes a typical day of pumping and nursing for babies of various ages, how to combine nursing and formula feeding, and how to stop leaking breasts (discreetly press on your nipples with the back of your forearms or with your elbows). Appendices include a list of resources for nursing, working mothers and a sample proposal for pumping space. 1094727 25 2 1996 Nursing Mother, Working Mother: The Essential Guide for Breastfeeding and Staying Close to Your Baby After You Return to Work total:65|5:0|4:1|3:2|2:0|1:0| 65 250 83 15 4 0 false false Fri Aug 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 08 12:09:58 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 31 11:37:34 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Mar 25 08:29:12 -0700 2008 Tue Jan 22 07:48:13 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 31 14:47:22 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Wed Aug 08 10:05:34 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 10 19:24:13 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 06:08:50 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 06:11:41 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 21:49:58 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 01 21:54:06 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri May 08 12:08:55 -0700 2009 Fri May 08 12:13:18 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 20:40:09 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 20:42:09 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Jan 16 09:24:35 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 09:24:50 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Fri Apr 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jan 19 20:25:53 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 19 20:25:53 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Oct 04 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 28 11:39:19 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 06 05:53:47 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Jan 24 18:32:50 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 24 18:34:49 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Sep 15 15:42:07 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 15 15:43:15 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Oct 18 08:20:25 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 18 08:21:29 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Aug 23 01:52:11 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 23 01:52:32 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sat Sep 05 09:43:23 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 09:44:06 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Nov 02 10:42:30 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 10:42:30 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Thu Oct 08 07:19:35 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 08 07:19:35 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 08 17:34:17 -0800 2009 Fri Sep 18 21:02:32 -0700 2009 Sun Nov 08 17:34:17 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Sep 04 15:45:33 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 04 15:45:33 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Sep 03 20:33:10 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 03 20:33:10 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1107781
