About this event

Our breastfeeding class, designed for moms delivering at MercyOne in Waterloo, covers all the basics of breast-feeding. Discussion includes: advantages of breast milk as the superior infant food, preparation for breast-feeding, what to expect in the hospital and breast-feeding skills (including positioning and latch).

This online class is designed for those planning to give birth at MercyOne in Waterloo, Iowa.

We will also talk about storage and handling of breast milk, breast pumps, returning to work and more. Class is taught by our Lactation Consultants. A support person is encouraged to attend.

We provide breast pumps for sale or rent. For more information, please contact our lactation department at 319-272-MILK (6455).
