La Leche League of St. Charles County, Missouri
La Leche (la lay-chay) League International was founded in 1956 to provide information and support to breastfeeding mothers. All woman interested in breastfeeding are invited to attend, and nursing babies are always welcome. Small discussion groups, led by Leaders who have successfully breastfed their babies, meet monthly at various times and places throughout St. Charles County and Franklin County for your convenience. We encourage you to join us during your pregnancy to receive valuable information to help you get started, as well as after your baby is born for continued support. The discussion topics are taken from LLL's manual, THE WOMANLY ART OF BREASTFEEDING, which is available for loan or purchase at any of the meetings.
