Local groups hold monthly meetings for interested women (and babies!). Informal discussions cover a wide range of breastfeeding related topics including:

• why breastfeeding is good for mother and baby
• preparation and expectations
• getting breastfeeding off to a good start
• overcoming or avoiding challenges and difficulties
• family life with a baby
• nighttime parenting
• infant sleep
• returning to work
• nutrition and weaning

Many groups also offer toddler meetings, couples meetings, antenatal classes and coffee mornings.

Babies and dependent toddlers/children are always welcome at our meetings (though as children over three can grow restless when you are busy chatting at the meeting, they may prefer to stay home with their favourite carer).

Health professionals interested in breastfeeding are also welcome.
Please phone ahead to let the local Leader know you are coming.
