Hi- wondering if you have a meetings schedule for January 2017? Thanks! suztrautwein@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteYes! We are re-starting next week (Jan 10), I've updated the page to show the upcoming meetings.
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm a birth doula in Princeton and I'd love to connect! I plan to attend the next meeting with my 7 month old, because I've never been to a LLL meeting and I've wanted to do so for a while. Also, I was asked for a recommendation for breastfeeding classes in the area from a pregnant client and wondered if you had any suggestions? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Tae, thanks so much for contacting us! We would love to have you and your baby at our meetings! Unfortunately, we can not recommend specific people/businesses through LLL, but attending LLL meetings or calling a leader while pregnant is a great way to get ready for breastfeeding because you can ask questions and hear other mom's stories. Also, having a prenatal consult wiht an IBCLC (which are often covered by insurance, depending on your plan) is an excellent way to learn more about breastfeeding because of the personalized nature. For both LLL meetings and private consults, you can go into much more depth compared with a one hour class at a hospital or baby store. Please see the tabs above for information on contacting a leader or IBCLC in our area.
DeleteHello, when is your next meeting. My 2 week old and I are struggling with latching.
ReplyDeleteHi Dee Dee - I'm so sorry, we are still figuring out our meeting situation! Meanwhile, there are several options for you - (1) please go to the "Contact a Leader for Help" tab for my info to call or email me for help, which I'm happy to do! (2) there are several LLL groups in the general area that you can visit (see the links above on this "Meeting Info" blog post, (3) The Princeton Hospital has a twice weekly group (Tuesdays and Fridays - 11 am to noon - in East Windsor (Princeton Medical Center Breast Health Center, East Windsor Medical Commons 2, 300B Princeton-Hightstown Road, East Windsor)), and finally (4) another way to find help is to go to Zipmilk.org Both LLL Leaders and IBCLCs are listed there. For more info on the kind of help you can get from ZipMilk, see the "Need More Help?" tab above.
ReplyDeleteFinally there are many great resources for help with latch, supply and more on the "Breastfeeding 101" tab above! Looking forward to hearing from you!
