As part of Bendigo Health's Covid-19 response, all classes will be held online for 2021.

During this online session a Lactation Consultant will go through breastfeeding & normal newborns feeding patterns in the first weeks of life, as well as some strategies to assist you with this transition.

We talk about the advantages of breastfeeding, building and maintaining your milk supply, strategies for success, breastfeeding techniques, how to breastfeed comfortably and tips for partner feeding.

Your partner or a support person are welcome to attend.

When booking, please use the same name as on your medicare card (the same name you are using at the hospital) and include your UR number (hospital number).

An online breastfeeding information package is available on the Bendigo health website for you to look at prior to your class. https://www.bendigohealth.org.au/PregnancyCare/
