  • Basic breastfeeding
  • Positioning and latching the baby at the breast
  • Dealing with breastfeeding difficulties that may arise
  • Breastfeeding twins or triplets
  • Breastfeeding a premature or special needs baby
  • Breastfeeding even when medical issues arise with mom or baby
  • Continuing to breastfeed after going back to work or school

Allison Garfinkel RN IBCLC, Rebecca Walker RN IBCLC, Sue Bechhold RN IBCLC and Amy Hnetinka RN IBCLC will be leading this group and a scale is provided to weigh babies.

There is no charge for the group and no reservations are necessary. Feel free to bring a beverage and a snack. Breastfeeding babies and their siblings are welcome.
