Breastfeeding Support Group

As natural as breastfeeding is it is also a learned skill both by the mother and the baby.  During this stage many women look for the encouraging support of other mothers.  This support enables mothers to more easily overcome common breastfeeing challenges.  By joining our breastfeeding support groups you can spend time with other mothers and their babies and get breastfeeding and mothering support from each other. 

We meet with other babies at DOUM every week.  Sometimes we also invite experts.  We talk about what's on your mind or the topic of the week.  Potential topics include:  Nutrition while breastfeeding, breastfeeding outdoors, crying babies, breastfeeding problems, baby-led weaning, gettign rid of chemicals in your home...

Meetings are open to all mothers - whether or not you are actually breastfeeding. 

These meetings are free of charge.
