They will have the opportunity to ask questions and practice breathing and relaxation techniques. This is intended for both partners and is best completed before the 36th week of pregnancy.

Being fully informed before the baby is born will save time and prevent frustration as the new mom feeds her baby. This class is recommended for mom and her partner. Instructors with specialized training and certification in breastfeeding teach techniques, how to know the baby is getting enough to eat, and how to combine breastfeeding with returning to work.
