LA LECHE LEAGUE of GLENDORA

La Leche League is dedicated to the importance of the mother-infant relationship. We believe that breastfeeding not only provides the best nutrition, but that it is also an ideal way to initiate good parent-child relationships, thereby benefiting the whole family.

La Leche League is an international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing education, information, support, and encouragement to women who want to breastfeed.

MEETINGS

All women who have an interest in breastfeeding are invited to attend La Leche League meetings and are accepted with open arms. The ideal time to begin attending is during pregnancy because the information received in advance may prove to be vital to a mother when her baby arrives. Bring a friend if you'd like. Remember, you don't have to be a pregnant or new mom to come to meetings. Experienced nursing mothers will also find the meetings helpful and supportive. Babies are always WELCOME at all LLL meetings. Please do bring your breastfed baby — you'll both be happier!!

Each series of meetings is a set of four topics. Mothers are welcome to begin attending meetings at any point in the series and as many times they are beneficial to her and her family. No two series are exactly alike since we are all growing in our understanding of child development, mothering, and family life. The series' topics are:

Meeting #1	The Advantages of Breastfeeding to Mother and Baby
Meeting #2	Baby Arrives: The Family and the Breastfed Baby
Meeting #3	The Art of Breastfeeding and Avoiding Difficulties
Meeting #4	Nutrition and Weaning
