    We strongly recommend that you complete your prenatal education no later than your 36th week of pregnancy. Starting this course between weeks 28-32 will allow you time to comfortably integrate the content into your birth preparation and further explore topics that spark your interest.

    Note: Many classes fill up quickly! If you would like to take our Childbirth Prep 6 Week Series you may need to begin prior to 28 weeks.

    This workshop is designed to support and educate pregnant people and their partners about the process of breast/chest-feeding, and give the birthing person the tools they need to successfully begin nursing their newborn with confidence.

    During this class the following topics will be covered:

    -Health benefits to the lactating parent and baby
    -Basic anatomy and physiology of the breast
    -Care of the nursing parent
    -How to read baby's feeding cues
    -How to initiate breastfeeding
    -Correct positioning and latch
    -Problem solving
    -Bonding with your baby
    -Locating community lactation resources

    Pumping and bottle feeding will be discussed only briefly as one alternative to supplement your newborn in the early days if needed/desired. You will be provided with additional resources to explore regarding pumping to introduce the first bottle and pumping in order to return to work.

    Please Note:

    -Birth partner/support person is included in the registration fee.
    -Birth partner/support person can NOT be a pregnant friend.
    -Pregnant friends attending together need to register independently.

Attendee of Breastfeeding/Chestfeeding Class
It was so comprehensive and useful.

I feel so much more informed and confident now! Loved learning breastfeeding positions. So helpful!

A
Attendee of Breastfeeding/Chestfeeding Class
I learned a lot!

My experience has been great. Helpful, kind and compassionate. If you have zoom participants, try to keep that in mind. Once I asked Beth to repeat questions from the class (couldn't hear them), she immediately adjusted, which was so helpful!

A
Attendee of Breastfeeding/Chestfeeding Class
Such great information, so much so that it could be a two part series.

The most important thing I learned is that breastfeeding is hard but stick with it!
