Babywearing Meeting!

-

This month's La Leche League morning meeting topic is Babywearing!

What do you love about wearing your baby or toddler? What type of carrier have you always wanted to try?
Is there a tricky back or side carry you need demonstrated? Then this meeting is for you! And for the babywearing pros among us, this is an opportunity to share the love and spread your wisdom:) Please bring your carriers and try ours! We'll have ring slings, pouches, Mobys, woven wraps, ergos, and more.

Of course we always have space for your breastfeeding questions, concerns, and successes.

See you this Tuesday, January 17 @10am
Sunnyside Presbyterian Church
115 S. Frances St.
South Bend, IN 46617

LLL of South Bend Meetings and COVID-19

Dear mothers and friends, In consideration of the state recommendations and the response of many of the public spaces, including some of those in which we hold meetings, La Leche League of South Bend has decided to postpone our regular in-person meetings. We will continue to carefully monitor the situation in our area and continue meetings when it seems possible and safe for you and your families. We are taking this situation seriously and want to still be able to help mothers with breastfeeding questions. If you have any breastfeeding concerns or questions, you can still contact us via phone, email, or Facebook. We are always happy to help families work through difficult, joyful, and strange moments of the journey! lllofsouthbend.blogspot.com/ lllofsouthbend@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/lllofsouthbend / 574-334-7624 Breast milk is still the best food for your babies, and La Leche has provided guidance for breastfeeding through illness: Continuing to Nurse Your Baby

After some renovations at Shedd Aquarium they now offers a nursing room. Until recently the nursing room was designated on the maps and at the door with a logo of a bottle. One of our local mothers was one of many who contacted the directors of the aquarium and happily they are in the process of changing the bottle logos to the international breastfeeding logo: Shedd Aquarium is located in Chicago and has regular free community days. You can find out more about their free days and other admisson discounts as well as all the sights to see while you are there at http://www.sheddaquarium.org/discounts.html
