La Leche League has also published many printed resources, including The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding. Whether you have a physical copy or not, you can access a toolkit of information found in Chapter 20 (pages 447-493 in the 8th edition) that allows you to take portions of information found in The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding and handily place these in a convenient location in your home or share them with family or a childcare provider.

The Tear-Sheet Toolkit is available for download at www.llli.org/resources/womanly-art-breastfeeding/#TEAR. (Did you know that a new edition of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding is in the works? Stay tuned for more information!)
