Before sitting for your Lamaze Certification Exam it is recommended that you read the below books.  Links are provided directly to Amazon for these books.  If you are interested in purchasing from Amazon, by using the below links I will get a little extra $ and you receive the same great prices and service you would otherwise!

Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Newborn by Penny Simkin (https://amzn.to/4aQmdYD) and Giving Birth with Confidence by Judith Lothian (https://amzn.to/3Rlb1wj) are the two most important of books.  The others are recommended by Lamaze.

Please note that you may choose 1 of the breastfeeding books, not all of them.

You may also want to check your local libraries or with other birth workers before purchasing.

One of the following:

The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding (https://amzn.to/3V7d6gu), Breastfeeding Made Simple (https://amzn.to/3VaqdO1), OR The Nursing Mother’s Companion (https://amzn.to/4bNyUVD).
