Comment: Finally, A childrens book about breastfeeding with REAL pictures.
There are a few other breastfeeding books that contain images of
animals or cartoons, but these can not convey the special
relationship between a nursing mother and child as this book does.
Breastfeeding is such an essential part of life.
My children, and the rest of my
family could really relate to this book.
I admire the authors courage and willingness to put herself out there to promote breastfeeding.
I recommend this book as a gift for new or expecting mothers.
It will surely encourage the decision to breastfeed.
The Mother in the book is clearly enjoying herself, and the book shows nursing in various parts
daily life.

Summary: A sweet story of extended nursing!
Comment: Being a mom who breastfed her child until one month after her third birthday, I can totally relate to this story of extended nursing. I can remember that special time like it was yesterday...my daughter's sweet face smiling back up at me as she was nursing, her hands gently tugging at my hair, her eyes slowly drifting into a deep sleep. What a wonderful experience it was for the both of us.
The book, "I'm Made of Mama's Milk," by Mary Olsen, is a short rhyming story that captures the nursing experiences of a toddler and her family. Not only is this book special for nursing mothers and their children, but it's also a good book for non-nursing mothers to share with their children. Most of the time non-nursing children will have the opportunity to see children who are nursing, and this book will help to clear up any questions they may have. I think it's simple enough for even very young children to understand.
MyParenTime.com highly recommends this book -- it's perfect for babies and toddlers, whether they're nursing or not! The book is made of sturdy cardboard pages, and shows softened images of a toddler and her family. Many of these images show the toddler nursing and smiling. Other images show the toddler enjoying her family :). On the last page of the book, there is a reflective foil where the child reading the book can look inside and see themselves. Babies and toddlers just love looking at themselves! What a sweet book to accompany what is bound to be a very sweet time in your child's life :).

Summary: Sweet book- glad it's around!
Comment: Okay, so this book isn't going to win any awards for text or picture quality but it's not awful. I was actually expecting the picture quality to be worse than it is from some of the reviews. I'm just glad there's a board book out there about nursing. Perhaps if some of the major publishers would publish a book about breastfeeding it would be of better quality. It looks to me like the author paid to have it printed in Thailand herself, so yeah for her for doing it! I really do think it's a shame there aren't more books about nursing, it's a HUGE part of my sons life right now- mine too :) I mean what's the deal people? Too scared to talk about boobies?
The only draw back with this book for me is it reminds my son of nursing and then he kind of looks at me like, hey that's not a bad idea... and he is nursing!
