LLL meeting - Sleep and other challenges

Hello Wonderful Mamas!

 At our next morning meeting we will be discussing that precious commodity for all parents--Sleep. There are as many sleep philosophies and set-ups as there are babies. Come share ideas of what has worked for your family, struggles you face, and an open heart for commiseration.

 We're also looking forward to hearing your breastfeeding questions, concerns, and successes.

 10am Tuesday, Janurary 16th

Sunnyside Presbyterian Church

 115 S. Frances St. South Bend, IN 46617
