Are you a pregnant mom who will be going back to work after you
have your baby? Are you worried about how to pump while working? Do
you work with pregnant or breastfeeding women who plan to pump
their milk after they go back to work? Do you need more information
on pumps and pumping to increase duration of breastfeeding among
your clients? Pumping breastmilk is a very personal behavior for
most women. Surveys indicate women want a pump that works quickly,
obtains a sufficient quantity of milk from each breast, and does
not cause pain. A pump that works for one mom may not work as well
for another mom for a variety of reasons. Many mothers have found
interventions and techniques that make their pumps work better. In
this three-part book, Marsha Walker, RN, IBCLC, shares information
on the history and regulation of breast pumps, the mechanics of
pumps, a review of the literature, types of pumps, ways to pump
more effectively, flanges, how to choose a pump, pumping protocols,
how to troubleshoot problems, and how to deal with low milk supply.
If you want to know more about breast pumps and tips and techniques
for pumping more milk, this is the book for you!

In The Nipple and Areola in Breastfeeding and Lactation: Anatomy,
Physiology, Problems, and Solutions, Marsha Walker, RN, IBCLC,
provides an in-depth resource for clinicians on the structure,
function, problems, and solutions of the nipple and areola in
lactation. The nipple and areola are the crucial interface between
the breast and the infant. Problems with these structures,
particularly pain and trauma, represent one of the most frequent
causes of early termination of breastfeeding. This book examines
the nipple and areola through a thorough description of the
structure of the nipple, how it functions, its problems, and
suggested solutions. New techniques have allowed the
three-dimensional reconstruction of the internal structures of the
nipple to be visualized, helping clinicians gain a better
understanding of the anatomy and physiology of this specialized
feature of the breast. This book covers the newest data in the
structure and function of the nipple and areola gathered from
computer reconstruction of sectioned tissue, ultrasound, and other
study modalities. Topics range from common problems with suggested
solutions to newer thoughts on remedies for sore nipples, such as
peppermint gel and ozonated olive oil. Practical and usable care
plans are provided for problematic situations. Figures, tables,
boxes, and charts help summarize and enhance the usefulness of the
book. This unique reference is a departure from the standard
information found in text books and is specially designed as a
practical resource for the busy clinician. Key points include the
following: -A look at the nipple and areola literally from the
inside out -Information not found in standard textbooks -New
potential remedies for sore nipples -Graphics that provide new
insight on the structures within the nipple -Text summaries and
care plans make the book of real practical value.
Are you working with a breastfed baby that needs to be
supplemented? If you supplement with infant formula, what impact
will the formula have on the baby, the mother, and the
breastfeeding relationship? Does the baby really need to be
supplemented with formula or are there better alternatives? Does
the mother have plenty of milk, but just needs help with a
breastfeeding problem, or does she need help to build her milk
supply? Marsha Walker, RN, IBCLC, author of Supplementation of the
Breastfed Infant: Criteria, Decisions, and Interventions, answers
these questions and more! She describes why supplementation has
become so commonplace, what it does to the gut flora of the
breastfed baby, the future health problems caused by altering an
infant's gut flora, and how supplementation impacts the
breastfeeding relationship. Does giving the baby "just one bottle"
really change gut flora? Walker describes research that has
investigated this issue and the surprising results! But what if a
baby really needs to be supplemented? Walker describes
circumstances when supplementation of a breastfed infant might be
necessary and how to supplement, doing as little damage to the
breastfeeding relationship and the infant's gut flora as possible.
If you are a health provider who routinely gives newborns
supplemental formula, read this book and see if the evidence
changes the way you practice. If you are a lactation professional
who works to correct the "damage" done by "just one bottle," this
book will provide you the evidence you need to discuss this issue
with mothers, families, physicians, and hospital staff to change
supplementation practices in your area.
In the first part of this well-referenced monograph, Marsha Walker,
RN, IBCLC describes the late preterm infant, discusses contributors
to late preterm birth, and explains the importance of the last six
weeks of gestation. She discusses the impact of birth interventions
on breastfeeding the late preterm infant and explains why mothers
of late preterm infants may be at increased risk of delayed
lactogenesis II. In the second part of the monograph, Walker
discusses breastfeeding management guidelines for the late preterm
infant. This includes issues the late preterm infant may face, such
as hypothermia, hypoglycemia, respiratory instability, hypotonia,
and immature feeding skills, and their impact on breastfeeding. She
covers how to provide latch assistance, assess feedings at the
breast, when to supplement, how to use bottles and artificial
nipples, how to help others initiate and maintain maternal milk
supply, and ways to optimize milk production. Walker includes
information on individualized feeding plans for moms to follow
after discharge, including a sample plan. This monograph is full of
pictures, graphs, and resources and is a must-have for all
healthcare providers who help mothers breastfeed late preterm
infants.
Tongue-tie has become one of the most controversial topics in
lactation. Unfortunately, mothers, babies, and the IBCLCs who want
to help are caught in the crossfire. How should tongue-tie be
identified and treated? Do posterior ties exist? Are there
alternatives to surgery? These are some of the issues lactation
consultants face, as well as Scope of Practice issues and what
their role should be in identifying and treating tongue-tie. This
monograph features an expert roundtable answering these important
questions. We assembled a panel of experts on tongue-tie who
represented a wide range of disciplines including pediatrics,
family medicine, dentistry, mental health, speech and language, and
lactation. Members of this panel do not always agree, but the
discourse is respectful and represents the state of the art in this
field.
