Very comforting read

I bought this when I got pregnant and was still nursing my almost-two-year-old. It's nicely written with entertaining illustrations and lovely pictures of many tandem nursers. It made me feel like whatever I decided was okay, and whether I end up weaning before the birth, nursing two on demand, nursing one on demand and one to schedule, or even if he starts up again after weaning once the baby comes, it's all been done before and it's all doable.


Perfect for any breastfeeding mom or suporter of breastfeeding

This is a great support book, even for those women who are only breastfeeding one child. It offers great ideas and is a must have for any nursing family.

A Necessity for any breastfeeding mom who plans to have more children

This is NOT just for moms who plan to breastfeed two, but ALSO for breastfeeding moms who might get pregnant while breastfeeding. I could have used it earlier in my 2nd pregnancy, but I waited until I couldn't wean my first. Great information on how it affects contractions and it helps to affirm that breastfeeding while you're pregnant is just fine. A few tips for positioning and lots of stories so you know you are not alone. I'm still tandem nursing after 14 months at it! Plus nine if you count in-utero time. Might sound strange to some, but you find yourself doing things different than you might think once you're the mom.

Wonderfully helpful for mamas thinking about tandeming

This book really helped me sort out what was best for our family when I was pregnant while nursing a 2-year-old. What I liked about the book is that it is, as much as possible, based on research rather than opinion. So many health care professionals advise their pregnant patients to wean their nurslings, regardless of age, when this advice is completely unsupported by evidence. I also was very grateful for the non-judgmental tone of this book. She acknowledges that there is no one approach for every family, but without downplaying the vital importance of breastfeeding for as long as mother and baby wish to. I'd recommend this book for any mother who is pregnant or has a baby while nursing an older child.

trying to find a book about the impact a 2nd child will have on your family?

I wasn't overly impressed by any of the ones I saw, so I dug this out instead, figuring I could at least get a little heads up on what to expect in terms of nursing (like everyone else posting reviews, I've got a nursing toddler and am pregnant; having gotten thru the worst of the soreness, I don't expect weaning soon). In the event, this book offers a nice overview of other impacts on the family of adding a new baby to the mix: sleep issues, routines, keeping the toddler happy while the newborn has you fully occupied, etc. And unlike some of the other second-child books, this one is firmly focused on attachment parenting/co-sleeping/extended nursing/etc.

Flowers' narrative voice is pleasant without wasting your time. As with all too many books about breastfeeding, the format is a little large for holding comfortably while nursing. The voices of many, many mothers who have Already Been There are included within a structure that lets you look up an answer to a question you have quickly.
