The following resource list is merely that: a recommended list of resources for pregnancy, breastfeeding, parenting and beyond for individuals or providers. These are the resources I tell my patients and colleagues about on a daily basis. This list has been a decade in the making and was created through many years of nursing school. I hope you find this list as useful as I do. My personal comments are in italics and handouts, PDFs and apps area highlight throughout the list.
