Finding Sufficiency: Breastfeeding With Insufficient Glandular Tissue

by Diana Cassar-Uhl

Breastfeeding difficulty due to insufficient glandular tissue is something many mothers struggle with. Because this condition is still largely under-researched and misunderstood by practitioners who work with mothers during the perinatal period, women who experience breastfeeding problems due to insufficient glandular development also struggle to find support, both clinical and emotional, in dealing with them. This book aims to inform and support the efforts of breastfeeding mothers with low milk production due to insufficient glandular tissue, from both a scientific standpoint and an emotional one, covering the unique decisions and feelings that may be faced by someone who fully intended to breastfeed but felt betrayed by her body. The book also provides guidance for practitioners who seek to understand this condition and support their patients/clients who are dealing with it.

Excellent book

I struggled with milk output with both my babies and no one has ever mentioned the connection with the shape of my breasts or even insulin resistance. I have many things now to check into before my next baby is born so that I can see if any of my lactation problem can be improved. This is an excellent resource and I will be consulting it a lot over the next year or so!

This book is full of information and support. It is such a great resource for those with IGT and for consultants.
