La Leche League of South Bend

Join us Tuesday, November 14 at 7 pm, River Park Branch Library. This meeting is not only for you mothers, but your partners and support people also.  How do we find support for breastfeeding? What role do partners play in our baby's lives?  What if they are gone for an extended time?  How do we make it all work, whether we stay home or return to a job? Come share your ideas and concerns.  Expectant parents, babies all welcome.

Mamas and babies can't breastfeed alone! We need a support network of those closest to us to help us make sure we are cared for as we care for our babies. Dads and other Partners can protect us from criticism, keep us fed, help us get help if and when we need it, and be our biggest cheerleaders during tough times. At our next meeting we'll share experiences and wishes for how we can create the most breastfeeding-friendly team between ourselves, our babies, and the other adults in our lives.  As always, we will have room for your breastfeeding questions, concerns, and successes. See you on Tuesday, March 26 at 10am Women's Care Center 360 N. Notre Dame Ave. (where it intersects with La Salle Ave.) South Bend, Indiana 46617
