Breastfeeding 911: Help for Hurdles: Fridays from 11am-12:30pmA comfortable environment that welcomes you to bring baby. This class is a triage style group where you can learn about achieving a comfortable latch and have a consultant observe you feeding your baby. It is not as in depth as a one-on-one consultation, though. You will be able to measure your baby’s intake using our scale and discuss the challenges you are having breastfeeding as well. Many mothers will not need additional care, but if further treatment is recommended, you will be referred to one of our Lactation Consultants. This group is for breastfeeding women with babies up to 6 months and is facilitated by certified lactation consultants. To respect the privacy of some mothers, we please ask that dads kindly wait outside of the classroom.--thank you. *please read our illness policy Class begins at 11am. in our Classroom at 2719 East Madison (click here for directions) *As a courtesy to those attending our classes/groups, there will be no late admittance the last 30 minutes of any session.
