Breastfeeding Basics
July 22, 2019 @ 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Designed for mothers interested in breastfeeding.
Caring for a new baby, especially for first-time mothers, can be overwhelming. Not only is your body going through physical changes, but also you will experience emotional changes. Preparation and education is key to having a successful, happy pregnancy, delivery and postpartum period.
SGMC provides educational classes for expectant parents and caregivers. Classes are provided as a community service for the expectant parents in the area who plan to deliver their baby at SGMC. Program presenters are SGMC Birthplace professional staff.
A registered nurse will discuss the facts and myths of making milk for your baby. Topics include the benefits of breastfeeding, positioning and latch tips, choosing a pump, and going back to work.
Children are not permitted in classes. Dads are encouraged to attend all classes whenever possible.
