Few issues in a new mother’s life are more polarizing, dominating, challenging and consuming than breatfeeding. This new collection of essays takes an introspective look at 25 personal experiences. Best-selling author Julia Glass discusses nursing two sons after being treated for breast cancer; humorist Suzanne Schlosberg laughs about the logistics of nursing twins; and columnist Patricia Barry defends her decision to bottle-feed her three daughters; and more. Moms of every persuasion will find something to relate to.
Unbuttoned: Women Open Up About the Pleasures, Pains, and Politics of Breastfeeding. Edited by Dana Sullivan and Maureen Connolly. Harvard Common Press.
