Program Description

Event Details

During this free course, you will learn small, but impactful adjustments to help ensure your comfort and baby’s ability to remove milk effectively during direct breast/bodyfeeding.  We will demonstrate paced bottle feeding, discuss different bottle/nipple shapes and explain how to introduce a bottle, so that you can feed your baby human milk in the way that works best for your family.

Join Andrea Fowler, Postpartum Doula & Certified Lactation Counselor, to start your infant feeding journey off with calm and confidence.
