(2023) Virtual Breastfeeding Basics, Ascension Providence

Register to meet with an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and learn breastfeeding basics.


Research has demonstrated that individuals who receive breastfeeding education are able to better meet their breastfeeding goals. We've seen that the more you know, the better you do--and we are here to help make it happen! You will learn how to use the "Golden Hour" after birth to set up for breastfeeding success and the skills you need to be successful on your breastfeeding journey.

Topics will also include:

  • Breastfeeding during a pandemic
  • Positioning
  • How to ensure baby is getting enough
  • Proper latch
  • Pumping and storage
  • Getting back to work
  • Signs and symptoms of feeding issues
  • Where to get help....and more!
