Breast Feeding Momma's

So I was thinking about enrolling in a breast feeding class at my hospital. I would really like to breast feed my baby for as long as my body allows me too. But my question is, is the class worth it? I really do not have any friends or family who breast fed, so I dont' have any one to give me advice. The class is only $25 so not a huge deal, but i'm just curious if it will be worth it and help me out.

take it if you want to, it's only $25, whats the harm.

they had a nurse come and show me how to get kaden to latch on. it was weird having an old lady touch me boobies lol

yeah, im sure it wouldn't hurt

It won't hurt. There's a lot about BFing I found out just from watching pregnancy shows on TV, but there's sooo much more you could learn that will probably help you out.

Thanks Ladies!

It will probably be very informational. I'd take it!

Take it!
I'm definatly going to all the classes I can once my little man is born. I want breast feeding, even EBFing to work!!!

I took the class offered by my hospital... It was definitely worth it!

I read books--lots of them! And I had a sister-in-law who was breast feeding at the time (she ended a couple months after I started) and some other friends who had breast fed several years back. I asked LOTS of questions. And in the beginning few months, I made TONS of calls and a few visits to the lactation consultants. I probably wouldn't have made it without all their help.

I think if I could go back, I'd take a breast feeding class. I was so scared that I was doing it wrong. I needed tons of reassurance...so I think it would have made me more confident in the long run. And it might have saved me some crying fits in the beginning.  

I took a breastfeeding class and I think it made all the difference. I kind of knew what to expect (because it's not easy at first!) and I could ask questions. It's a GREAT idea to take it!

to some people bf'ing comes easy, baby takes right to it.. to others... it can be a challange for both and you never know which category you fit into until baby comes.. I say be armed with as much info as you can!!!!

i have a friend who had a baby 2 months before i had my daughter, and she kinda walked me through what to expect.. she ended up not bein able to BF after two weeks, he had really bad nipple confusions thanks to the hospital feedin him bottles while they were there.. but i also have a cousin who was jus weening off her son when i had Adelin and she lives right next door to me so needless to say i was over alot askin questions and gettin help from her.. if i hadn't had them i would have gone to a class.. so jump right into!! you'll be glad for it 

I read about it but also i did have women around who have breastfeed, i asked about it at wic ,
luckly it was easy for us,
if you feel you are better at maybe learnin from a teacher id so go for it!

Out of all the classes i took at my hospital before I had my LO, the breastfeeding one was the one that helped me the most.
