Breastfeeding Basics

Breastfeeding is like learning to dance with a new partner - there are steps and rhythms that each person knows, and now these new partners must learn to work together.

In Breastfeeding Basics, participants receive practical information and support to enhance their breastfeeding experience and help them anticipate and overcome common stumbling blocks that new nursing mothers often encounter.

What you will learn

Topics include:

Nipple preparation
Engorgement
Storing and heating breast milk
Blocked ducts and breast lumps
Positions of comfort
Going back to work, and more
