Breastfeeding Education - Northwest Health La Porte

Breastfeeding provides benefits to both mom and baby. Breastfeeding mothers have a decreased risk of breast and ovarian cancer, diabetes and postpartum depression. In addition, breastfed babies are protected against illnesses and have a lower risk of allergies, ear infections, asthma and obesity. This class will help soon-to-be parents learn what to expect with breastfeeding after delivery, as well as how to recognize baby’s feeding cues, positioning techniques and problem-solving skills to aid your breastfeeding experience.
