From the earliest signs of pregnancy, your body begins preparing to nourish your baby. Written by registered midwife Karen McEwen, this expert guide walks you through every stage of your breast milk journey - from the first drops of colostrum to mature milk tailored to your baby’s changing needs.

Inside, you’ll learn about the stages of milk (colostrum, transitional, mature), how your milk adapts when your baby is ill or growing, and how to hand express colostrum before birth. This guide also explains the difference between foremilk and hindmilk, how supply responds to demand, and the powerful benefits of responsive breastfeeding.

Whether you're a first-time parent or looking to build confidence in your breastfeeding experience, this guide provides practical, reassuring support-backed by science and grounded in empathy.
