Basic Breastfeeding Resources

There are many wonderful books and videos to help you prepare for breastfeeding.  Here are some of my favorites.  All are available in my lending library.

The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding, by Diane Wiessinger, Diana West, and Teresa Pitman
Mother Food, by Hilary Jacobson
The Ultimate Breastfeeding Book of Answers, by Jack Newman
Dr. Jack Newman's Visual Guide to Breastfeeding (DVD)
Bestfeeding, by Suzanne Arms, Chloe Fisher, and Mary Renfrew
The Nursing Mother's Companion, By Kathleen Huggins

Teach Me How to Breastfeed.  This song is my jam.


This site is really well kept up and has links to the other local La Leche League groups in the Wasatch Front.

Lactation Consultants
These two ladies are my go to's for breastfeeding concerns.
Julie Johnson, IBCLC is located in the Salt Lake area
Karin Hardman, IBCLC is located in the Ogden area

Both offer group consults that are either free or at a reduced rate as well as private consultation.
