Breastfeeding Education

You’re preparing for your birth – have you prepared for what comes afterward? Spend some time learning about life with your baby.

Breastfeeding is natural, and it is a learned skill. Mother and child do a lot of learning in the early weeks, and support is essential. In a breastfeeding class, partners will learn the best ways to support the breastfeeding mother and child.

We are currently recommending classes with Dawn Martin, IBCLC, CD (DONA). Dawn's class is held at Birthwise Birth & Family Center, the same location in which you take your HypnoBirthing classes.

Some of what you will learn:

  • to prepare for success, and to get the support that makes success possible
  • to translate baby’s signals – the best way to know how baby is doing
  • the truth about sleep – both you and baby can get the rest you need
  • about gadgets – which to keep, and which to throw away

Visit Birthwise Calendar to learn dates and times of the breastfeeding class that will work for you.
