Who is the autor?
We have many glossy parenting books here, with all kinds of advice. Many
contain this type of advice 6-7 times per day :( despite they a
newly-published ones
Happily, Babywise hasn't been translated yet.
I can recommend these books (links to russian online bookstore)
"Baby from conception to 1 year" by J. Tsaregradskaya
http://www.ozon.ru/?context=detail&id=1113659
this is "Baby book" by W and M Sears in Russian
http://www.ozon.ru/?context=detail&id=1143208

You can give her my e-mail - I have 3 kids, all frequent nursers.

I think these links will be helpful to her:
www.likar-info/forum - it is a very bf-friendly parenting board, I like it
much of all.
www.mother.ru - here she can ask her questions to the russian LC (we don't
have IBCLCs here :()
http://www.yamama.ru/breastfeeding/index.html - many good articles about bf
in Russian

Motilium. It's over the counter here and in Russia, I think, too.
Sincerely yours,
