Sydney mother and author Melissa Macdonald has put her heart and soul into this book, to help pregnant women prepare themselves for breastfeeding and to aid new mums in those first crazy few weeks after having a baby.
She is mum to two boys Cameron and Cooper and like most women experienced difficulties breastfeeding. "I was in tears a lot of the time and couldn't understand why I was failing at what was meant to be such an easy thing to do" she says.
Melissa has interviewed hundreds of women who shared with her, their stories of feeding their babies both breast and bottle and the highs and lows that come with it.
Melissa Macdonald is a respected media commentator and has appeared on the 'Today' Show several times as well as "The Circle" to talk about breastfeeding issues. She has also written a string of articles for a number of magazines and websites in Australia and the USA.
