Critics Review
-
Olivia's book is just like Olivia herself: matter of fact, easy to understand, relatable, and with oodles of compassion for the reality of parenthood. Offering a concise and easily digestible roadmap, it serves as a go-to guide for soon-to-be parents seeking evidence-based advice for navigating the initial (and often wobbly) stages of parenthood and nurturing their newborns. It's easy to get overwhelmed by breastfeeding information, but Olivia manages to distill everything down to its core elements while ensuring vital insights aren't overlooked, resulting in a captivating and informative read that any parent will benefit from.

This is an incredibly practical and helpful book, full of myth busting tips and alternative approaches. It is supportive and non-judgemental, which is just what you need to get you through those initial few months. I wish I'd had this when I was breastfeeding!
