Favourite / best breastfeeding resources

I know that there are lots of people on here who have lots of breastfeeding experience and many breastfeeding peer supporters here, so I wondered which resources and websites / books you find really interesting and useful.

I remember borrowing a copy of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding last time round, and it was very interesting and informative.

My mil bought me a copy of bestfeeding by chloe fisher. Its quite dated but she is an excellent midwife with loads of years uner her belt. A really useful book and friends I have recommended it to have found it helpful too :)

I have this. It was one of the books we were given when doing our course. I second kellymom plus the BfN have some good leaflets/PDFs.

My sister bought me 'The food of love' when I was :bf: Zach.. It's an absolutely fantastic book and it was so handy and helpful to have close to hand as it's full of advice about everything!
It's also really funny and gets you through the sleepless nights :)
also there is a website to accompany the book:

Another vote for Kelly's Mum. Not solely a breastfeeding book but had a brilliant section on breastfeeding is The Baby by Dr William Sears & Martha Sears, they also have their own website.
