Breastfeeding is unquestionably natural, but by definition every first-time mama is a first-time breastfeeder and therefore can benefit from a little instruction. Breastfeeding for Beginners is informative, practical, and insightful, but it's also relaxed. A wide range of topics will be covered, including:
- how to initiate breastfeeding
- recognizing feeding cues
- techniques for ensuring a good latch
- different positions for breastfeeding
- how to know if baby is getting "enough"
- common myths and misconceptions, and more
The class is highly interactive, with ample time for discussion and questions. It is recommended for women in their 30th week of pregnancy and beyond.
Thanks for the great one-on-one home visit! We learned a ton and feel much more comfortable with our baby coming in a few weeks. Great class! I recommend it to all expectant mothers. -- Ali H.
