Breastfeeding Cafe

The Breastfeeding Cafe is a weekly meeting for women who are interested in, have, or are breastfeeding.

Our goal is to provide an informal meeting to help women in our community reach their breastfeeding goals. While this meeting is social and a great place to get to know other moms and babies, it can be especially helpful for women who have special challenges and obstacles to overcome. Mothers can get extra, weekly, one-on-one help from a leader and league mothers.

If you are...
  • Returning to work
  • Dealing with more complex breastfeeding challenges
  • Needing to chat 
... come and get support from like-minded breastfeeding mothers about the triumphs and challenges of breastfeeding!

Testimonial:

In my personal experience the breastfeeding cafe where we used to live was so helpful! When my daughter was first breastfeeding I had so many questions. Every week I had a new challenge. Knowing I could rely on that weekly meeting to get solid, evidence based information about breastfeeding was so reassuring! Athough I had friends who breastfed having a place to focus on breastfeeding was so helpful. Even after nursing my daughter for many months I still found the cafe invaluable. Some weeks I came because I had questions on things like how to introduce solids or how to get her to latch better while teething. Other times I just needed a cup of tea with some good friends. I found great camaraderie and support at the breastfeeding cafe.

Come check it out! Mondays 10-12 at Solid Grounds Coffeehouse and Cafe, 7610 Heths Salient Way, Spotsylvania, Va.
