Our workshops aim to increase confidence about breastfeeding and understand how to prevent and solve common breastfeeding challenges.
About this Event

Sign up to our face-to-face breastfeeding workshop to prepare for breastfeeding your new baby. Recommended around 34 weeks gestation.

The workshop will be run by one of the members of our Infant Feeding Team. We will talk through the benefits of breastfeeding and the practicalities of breastfeeding your new baby. The aim of this workshop is to help you feel more confident about breastfeeding and understand how to prevent and solve common breastfeeding difficulties, how to tell if your baby is getting enough milk and where to get help if you need it.

The session is fully interactive, and you will be able to ask questions and have an opportunity to chat with other expectant parents.

We encourage fathers/partners/a close friend or a family member to attend too - whoever may be supporting you when your baby is born.

Due to limited spaces, we ask that only mothers/nursing parents and their support (as detailed above), who are booked to have their baby at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital book onto the workshop.
