La Leche League is an international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing education, information, support, and encouragement to women who want to breastfeed. At meetings, La Leche League Leaders and other mothers share experiences, give suggestions, and offer support and encouragement. LLL meetings are ideal for learning from and making friends with other mothers. These meetings provide time for mother-to-mother sharing in a friendly and accepting atmosphere.
Meetings rotate through four general topics:
- Advantages of Breastfeeding
- Preparing for Baby, Childbirth and the New Baby at Home
- The Art of Breastfeeding: Avoiding and Overcoming Difficulties
- Nutrition and Weaning
