Breastfeeding Support Group
After leaving the hospital, moms may need additional assistance in breastfeeding. A free support group is offered weekly at HSHS Sacred Heart Hospital for all moms who wish to learn new ideas, share experiences and gain confidence in breastfeeding. Led by a lactation specialist, topics include:
- infant feeding cues
- latching
- milk supply
- weight gain in babies
- nutrition
- sore breasts
- pumping and storage of milk
- breastfeeding an adopted baby or twins
Participants have the opportunity to discuss concerns, build camaraderie and receive education and support in a relaxed environment. Babies are encouraged to attend. Support people are welcome. For more information and to register, click HERE.
