As one of the reviewers, I received  an advance copy of he Little
Green Book of Breastfeeding Management. I just sat there reading it,
exclaimating every two minutes, *ALL the docs should read this!*
And they should!
It should be required reading!
In fact, I would go further and say that every health care worker and
daycare provider and parent - anyone who has contact with babies and
young children, should read it.
The virtue of this book is that is accurate, readable, short and
cheap. It cover the main points and tells you where to get more
information.
What more could you want?
The question now is how to get it into more people's hands!

norma, who has no financial interest in this book.

4th edition of The Little Green Book of Breastfeeding Management that just
came out has a section on the first 100 hours so docs can know what signs to
look for and which ones not to put too much faith in - so they know when
[and how soon] they need to follow-up even after that 3 to 5 day visit. It's
not so much a checklist, more like a training guideline, because in addition
to the descriptive writing there are lists of questions to ask to evaluate
how the baby is doing. Maybe this would be helpful? Perhaps one of the
reviewers can comment.<
