    I just read So That's What They're For and loved it.  The writer has a good sense of humor.  I also read The Nursing Mother's Companion.  It seemed a little dated, but overall had some good information.  Next up is Milk Memos.

    The Nursing Mother's companion was my bible after the baby was born. I could see where it would be a bit dry before. I referenced that thing multiple times a day in the first month of Logan's life.

    I liked "So That's What They're For" also, I think it's the only one I read, plus what was in "Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Newborn."

    the Nursing Mother's Companion - absolutely.  And it was still great when I was having trouble breastfeeding and needed to pump and go to formula.  It's not funny, but it's supportive, clear, and really straight forward.  Highly recommend.
    After three years TTC, four IUI's plus 2 cancelled, MFI (morph, motility, count), maternal age (40 as of 5/12) & former endo, we're moving to IVF spring 2012 (good/avg AMH and FSH). We did beat the odds once, however. DD born after 2 years TTC with clomid and no monitoring at my age 35. Doctors are SHOCKED we were able to conceive. Here's hoping for another miracle.
