Book Description
This bilingual children's picture book is the Board Book version of Hohm Press's highly-successful We Like to Nurse. A classic in the field, with over 300,000 books sold to date, this book draws attention to our kinship with all mammals, using simple text and showing delightful full-color illustrations of animal mothers naturally feeding their babies. The illustrations and text in We Like to Nurse focus on both exotic animals, like elephants and giraffes, as well as animals that children may see every day like cats and dogs. This book is a celebration of the mother-infant bond that is naturally established through nursing. Because of its commitment to family health and the well-being of infants and children, Hohm Press is proud to present this new user-friendly format for a title that stresses the benefits of human infant breastfeeding. This book joins We Like to Nurse Too, and Ready to Wean, in our Family Health Series, along with other titles directed toward conscious parenting and education, like Free Range Learning and Conscious Parenting. The book also takes a stand for the health of the environment, honoring the Earth and all her creatures. We believe that introducing young children to the nursing habits of baby mammals can foster a love and concern that will grow to protection of the Earth we love.

Book Description
The decision to breastfeed is determined by a mother's personality, her level of self-esteem, her education about the potential problems of the initiation period in breastfeeding, her need or desire to be able to leave her baby in the care of others for long periods of time, and the attitude of her spouse. However, with education and support from others, particularly other mothers who know the situation first-hand, almost all of these factors can be positively addressed.

I Wasn't Strong Like This When I Started Out: True Stories of Becoming a Nurse

Author: Lee Gutkind
Publisher: Underland Press
ISBN: 193716313X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 256

Book Description
This collection of true narratives reflects the dynamism and diversity of nurses, who provide the first vital line of patient care. Here, nurses remember their first "sticks," first births, and first deaths, and reflect on what gets them though long, demanding shifts, and keeps them in the profession. The stories reveal many voices from nurses at different stages of their careers: One nurse-in-training longs to be trusted with more "important" procedures, while another questions her ability to care for nursing home residents. An efficient young emergency room nurse finds his life and career irrevocably changed by a car accident. A nurse practitioner wonders whether she has violated professional boundaries in her care for a homeless man with AIDS, and a home care case manager is the sole attendee at a funeral for one of her patients. What connects these stories is the passion and strength of the writers, who struggle against burnout and bureaucracy to serve their patients with skill, empathy, and strength.
