Linda D. Dahl - Better Breastfeeding: A Doctors Guide to Nursing Without Pain and Frustration

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This book has been eighteen years in the making, even before I knew it had to be written. I will be forever grateful to my agent, Iris Blasi, and my editor, Michele Eniclerico, who took it on even though there were already too many breastfeeding books and my perspective was way outside the box. Without them and everyone at Rodale, it would still be knocking around in my head, fighting to get out. I want to thank my daughter, Lucy, for showing me the true definition of motherhood.

I owe a debt of gratitude to all the lactation consultants, nurse practitioners, midwives, doulas, osteopaths, and pediatricians Ive worked with over the years, who taught me so much. There are far too many to mention. And to all mothers and fathers who trusted me with their babies.

A special thank-you to my loved ones, whove championed my efforts and taught me the true meaning of friendship. Jodi Stein and Charlie Alterman, my always companions, for reading everything I write and saying its the best thing theyve ever read even when it isnt. Dr. Yael Halaas, who predicted, when we first met, I would move to New York and become her best friend, and she was right. Diane Moore, for being the best sister in the world. Dr. Darius Kohan and Joe Agosta, two of the kindest, most generous human beings alive.
