Others' Milk: The Potential of Exceptional Breastfeeding

The Potential of Exceptional Breastfeeding

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Breastfeeding rarely conforms to the idealized Madonna and baby image seen in old artwork, now re-cast in celebrity breastfeeding photo spreads and pro-breastfeeding ad campaigns. The personal accounts in Others' Milk illustrate just how messy and challenging and unpredictable it can be - an uncomfortable reality in the contemporary context of high-stakes motherhood.
