Hi all,

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond to Dawn's post below.  My new 
book, Breastfeeding Answers Made Simple: A Guide for Helping Mothers,  
is indeed published by Hale.  It uses the same general format as The 
Breastfeeding Answer Book (which the BAB initially modeled after a book 
written in the 1980's by the late, great Mary Rose Tully and Mary 
Overfield).   It is not good form to say too much about the book here, 
but you can read more (and get a pre-publication discount) at 
at:http://www.ibreastfeeding.com/catalog/p240/Breastfeeding-Answers-Made-Simple/product_info.html  
It is with the printer now and will be available at ILCA.

This book was a real labor or love for me and I *would* like to thank 
all the Lactnetters who were kind enough to review my chapters and 
sections, including Lactnet listmom Karleen Gribble (my go-to expert on 
relactation, induced lactation, and breastfeeding in emergencies), 
Catherine Watson Genna, Diana West, Barbara Wilson-Clay, Susan Burger, 
Marsha Walker, Diane Wiessinger, Lisa Marasco, Kirsten Berggren, Tina 
Smillie, and many others. Thanks also to my other reviewers, researchers 
Suzanne Colson, Nils Bergman, Miriam Labbok, Laurie Nommsen-Rivers, 
Cheryl Lovelady, Carol Wagner, and Kerstin Hedberg Nyqvist and to my 
awesome editor Kathleen Kendall-Tackett!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me off list.

Warm regards,

Nancy Mohrbacher, IBCLC, FILCA
Active LLL Leader (for nearly 28 years) and LC for Ameda Breastfeeding 
Products, Chicago suburbs
