Research shows that women who receive prenatal education, postpartum hospital and home visits, and telephone calls from a lactation consultant are more likely to breastfeed through week 20 and at a higher breastfeeding intensity than women who do not receive assistance from a lactation consultant.*

If you would like to get breastfeeding off to a great start, this is the workshop for you!

# Workshop requires the use of a DVD player
# Discount can also be applied to couples' Sunday workshops if you arrange a group of 4 couples or more at your home.
# Full payment for all your group's attendees (minimum 4 people) must be completed 7 days before workshop.

For more details of the workshops see Blue Sky's web site.
