Breastfeeding is a journey that is different for everyone. Whether you're a first-time mom or a mom to five, sometimes the journey can be overwhelming. Parkview's lactation consultants help pumping or breastfeeding mothers reach their breastfeeding goals with free support. This group allows for a drop-in style of scheduling – no need to make an appointment, just come during our available times. Stay for a short assessment or the whole hour and make some friends; the choice is yours!
To speak with a lactation consultant, day or night, call 260-672-6569.
The group meets every Tuesday from 7-8 p.m. in conference room C (entrance 2A).
