Description
La Leche League meetings present the practical, physical, and psychological aspects of breastfeeding and parenting through informal discussion. A continuing series of four monthly meetings is based on the information found in THE WOMANLY ART OF BREASTFEEDING and covers:
- The advantages of breastfeeding.
- Preparing for baby;bringing your baby home.
- The art of breastfeeding and overcoming difficulties.
- Starting solids; weaning; family nutrition
Additional topics, such as breastfeeding while employed and parenting the toddler, are periodically offered.
A lending library of books and pamphlets on all aspects of breastfeeding is available at meetings.
La Leche League meetings are geared to the expectant or new mother.
