This class is designed for those planning to breastfeed their baby, with partners strongly encouraged to join. You'll gain valuable insights into the benefits of breastfeeding, the process of milk production, and optimal feeding schedules. The class will also cover essential topics such as proper latch techniques, comfortable breastfeeding positions, signs of successful breastfeeding, and practical advice on pumping and storing milk.
