A Lullaby: Reflections for Caregivers of Breastfeeding Families

By Chris Auer

All who assist breastfeeding families will find A Lullaby a welcome invitation to reflect on their personal experiences with moms and babies. Its treasure trove of thought-provoking (and sometimes playful) ideas will help caregivers appreciate the meaning undergirding their daily encounters with these families. Dieticians, nurses, lactation consultants, both occupational and physical therapists, physicians, La Leche League leaders, and peer counselors - each will find wisdom here. Auer gives us illuminating insights to help us recognize the true North Star that propels our actions to protect, promote, and support human milk fed and breastfed babies. As we gaze upon the evening moon, A Lullaby assures us: Well done. Sleep Tight.

Chris Auer is a registered nurse and lactation consultant who worked in the world of mother-baby care at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center for over 40 years, including 25 years as a board-certified lactation consultant. She continues to provide lactation services in private practice at no charge. The insights in A Lullaby reflect substantial time Auer spent "inserting a pause" in order to grasp the meaning and lessons each day's encounters provide. Her first book, Under One Sky, is also available through Praeclarus Press.
