Breast feeding classes at Mommy Matters

Breastfeeding...Naturally the Best for your baby! But...breastfeeding dosn't always happen "naturally". Most Women need information, education and support, and that is why Prenatal Breastfeeding Classes are a great choice. Our classes are designed as a monthly series of four, one hour classes. You may chose the class you are most interested in, or take all four, one hour classes. You may take them all in one month, 2 q month or one amonth, whatever works best for you. These classes are taught by Lisa Gartin , a registered nurse, a Lactation Education Counselor, and a mom of three breastfed children. She has worked out of home with all three, and know the challenges moms face who return to work.

Session A: Why is breast best?!

The risks of artificial baby milk, Divine design, maternal nutrition,

myths, Heath Benefits for mom and baby.



Session B: How the breast makes milk, Will I make enough?,

Often imitated never duplicated, exactly what is in breast milk...

and why is it unique to your baby? How will I know if he/she is getting enough?



Session C: Getting started the ABC's of position and latch,

(aka how to do it right so it doesn't hurt). Common concerns, and special

challenges, reading baby's cues, how Dad can help.



Session D: Work and breastfeeding, Pumping and storage. Medications and

breastfeeding, getting out and about. Products that make life easier for the

breastfeeding mom. Support, resources.
