BREASTFEEDING CLASS
Mothers who want to breastfeed often give up in the first few weeks because of lack of INFORMATION and SUPPORT.
Prenatal preparation for breastfeeding is essential for success.
The WHO and UNICEF recommend that infants should be breastfed within one hour of birth, breastfed exclusively for the first six months of life and continue to be breastfed up to 2 years of age and beyond.
When you join The Nesting Heart’s Informed Breastfeeding Class, you are giving not only YOURSELF but also YOUR BABY a headstart to lifelong health and optimal development.
class content

When should the first latch be? When does it actually start? In this section, you will feel confident about getting started with breastfeeding on the right note
As a first time mum, you have many worries and concerns. In this section, we discuss what is normal to expect in the first few days, weeks, and months and what is cause for concern.
