La Leche League of Midland, Michigan
All breastfeeding mothers and mothers-to-be interested in breastfeeding are welcome to come to our meetings or call one of our Leaders for breastfeeding help or information. Breastfeeding is a simple and natural process, but you may need support. Our meetings provide information on the correct positioning of the baby at the breast, working and breastfeeding, avoiding problems, and overcoming any difficulties that may occur.
Knowing other women who have breastfed their babies can be helpful and reassuring. Having accurate, up-to-date information is also important. Attending La Leche League meetings can help you learn about breastfeeding from other nursing mothers. At these monthly meetings, mothers share not only their questions and concerns, but also the joys and benefits of breastfeeding. Being in touch with La Leche League can give you the network of support you need.
Meeting Information
Meetings are held on the fourth Tuesday of the month at 6:30 p.m. in the nursery at Midland First United Methodist Church. Please contact a Leader for more information.
Expectant mothers, nursing babies and toddlers are ALWAYS welcome at La Leche League Meetings!
Leader Information
La Leche League Leaders are experienced mothers who have breastfed their own babies and who have been trained and accredited by La Leche League International to help mothers and mothers-to-be with all aspects of breastfeeding.
