Prenatal

When you’re about to have a baby, there are so many things to consider. Feeding your baby may seem straightforward; but every baby, family, and situation are different. You can help to set yourself up for success by learning about what to expect during those early days after your baby arrives. Topics covered include:

  • Benefits of skin to skin contact
  • Typical newborn behaviour and feeding cues
  • Optimizing latching and positioning
  • Learning how to tell if your baby is getting milk
  • How to tell if feeding is going well or not
  • When to reach out for support
  • Any other questions or topics you would like to discuss about infant feeding

**Private or Group Classes Available.**
