Many mums are surprised that breastfeeding does not always come naturally and that problems can arise. Knowledge of some common breastfeeding issues and prevention strategies can help avoid or minimise problems. Today we’re going to chat about common breastfeeding issues and useful prevention and first aid tips you can try.

Our sessions involve getting together to participate in a group chat on a particular topic. After a general welcome and introduction we will have around 15-20 minutes of facilitated discussion, followed by informal social time and individual support with a breastfeeding counsellor.

Participants are encouraged to share experiences, ask questions, and provide input.
We meet at Shaftesbury Street Park, Tarragindi (on the Laura Street side, near the playground). A drink of choice is included from the nearby cafe. BYO picnic blanket or chair.

This is a very relaxed catch up – it’s fine if you come late/leave early – we know what it’s like to be operating on baby time! Partners, expectant parents, friends, and children of any age are welcome.

If you have breastfeeding questions that you would like support with, a trained breastfeeding counsellor will be there to help you.

We look forward to seeing you there!
