Abstract: Mapped to the UNICEF Baby Friendly Learning Outcomes, this new edition of Pollard...s essential textbook ensures readers are equipped with the essential knowledge and skills to effectively promote and support breastfeeding mothers.Breastfeeding is a major public health issue. Not only does breastmilk provide all the nutrients a baby needs for their first six months, but research shows it also helps to protect infants from infection and reduce obesity, as well as helping to protect mothers from some diseases in later life. Although many women want to breastfeed, rates drop rapidly in the first days and weeks after giving birth. Women need the support of their midwives and health visitors when establishing breastfeeding and throughout their children...s infancy.
