Acerca de esta escucha
We cheer “Breastfeeding! Yay!” on social media, and around our female friends with feminist pride. But at 3 a.m. you may be cudgeling yourself with, “Oh, dear god, what have we done?” Intellectually, we all know it’s better for our babies, and instinctually, many of us want to do it. But our pregnant daydreaming does little to prepare us for the pain, frustration, self-judgment, and fear that we may experience by choosing to breastfeed.
Breastfeeding can be all angels and rainbows. But more often it is an unlatching baby screaming at you, cracked nipples that feel like they’re being held in a vice-grip and licked by a cat, 3 a.m. freak-outs, explosively painful engorged boobs, flu-like mastitis. And then there’s pumping. And that is why, even considering breastfeeding makes you a saint. We tell ourselves that breastfeeding is natural, and therefore we should all be able to do it. While it is natural, it is not easy.
This audiobook is for every woman who found the truth of breastfeeding to be somewhat askew from her pre-baby fantasies, and for every woman who does not want to be taken by surprise by the latch - or lack there of. This audiobook is not intended for diagnosis, but for entertainment and commiseration.
Includes topics like:
- Latching onto Latching
- Screaming at the Breast
- Nursing Mothers Do it in Groups
- The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Pumping
- Woman vs the Cover
- And Then There Were Teeth
- The Bottle Battle
- Mastitis, Engorgement and Other Pains in the Boob

Being a mum is an incredible journey, a remarkable experience that changes how we look, how we feel, who we are. As mothers we are strong, protective and proud. We feel a love like no other. But being a parent can be hard, too. It challenges us physically, mentally, emotionally. There are the days where just managing to fit a shower in amidst the endless feeding, entertaining young children and surviving on a lack of sleep feels like an achievement.

Nice to Know I'm Not Alone
As a new mom, it's one thing to hear about all the things that you *should* do... but they all seem to operate in a vacuum instead of in real life. Motherhood rarely goes according to the books! It was really comforting to have this book point to what we're all thinking deep down about breastfeeding, or just plain feeding, our babies. Extra helpful that this is in an audio-version too, because time to sit down and read is limited now...but having time to listen to a book while inevitably multi-tasking is profuse!!
