La Leche League of Sappington, Missouri
Breastfeeding is natural, but that does not mean women can do it by instinct alone. Like childbirth, breastfeeding is easier with help. Problems of lactation can usually be avoided with preparation and information.
We invite you to attend our meetings and join with other women in a friendly discussion. All women are welcome. You may start the series with any meeting and come as often as you like.
Each group maintains a lending library with current books on childbirth, breastfeeding, and related subjects. Our manual, The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding, is available for purchase at $20 (10% off for members).
Meeting Information
Meetings are held at 7:00 P.M. on the second Monday of the month at Christ Memorial Lutheran Church, 5252 South Lindbergh. General directions: I-270 to Tesson Ferry toward St. Louis. Turn left on Lindbergh. Christ Memorial Church is less than 1 mile, just past Ronnie's Plaza on the right.
