Customer Reviews
Supportive but controversial
This is a great resource for breastfeeding parents! 4 starts since they support co-sleeping and a few other methods that are not supported by AAP
It seems alright
The show is not right for me. There are too many illogical feelings being agreed with no matter what. It’s good that they are being positive in their conversing, and supportive of breastfeeding. So 4 stars. I’ll bet it is a good show for somebody.
No
