Meeting Information

We meet regularly the first Thursday of every month (possible exception of July) at 7:00 p.m. at Roseville Lutheran Church, located at 1215 Roselawn Avenue West in Roseville (just west of Lexington). Please call a leader for the July meeting date as it sometimes changes due to July 4th celebrations and travel.

A series of four meetings over four months covers the following general topics:

  1. Advantages to Breastfeeding
  2. The New Baby Arrives
  3. The Art of Avoiding Difficulties
  4. Nutrition and Weaning

Because there are many subtopics under these headings, we try to creatively present different angles and new information as we cycle through our series during the course of a year.

The monthly discussion is followed by an open question and answer time. Many mothers find this part of our meeting very helpful.

We also encourage mothers with pumping questions to visit our meetings. Though many breastfeeding mothers rarely have a need to express milk, among the regular attendees of our group are mothers who routinely pump. These women are able to offer support and encouragement to new mothers transitioning back to work after a maternity leave.

We hope to see you at one of our meetings!
