Breastfeeding is a simple and natural process, but you may need support and information on the correct positioning of the baby at the breast, working and breastfeeding, avoiding problems and possibly overcoming difficulties. Knowing other parents who have breastfed their babies can be helpful and reassuring.  Having accurate, up-to-date information is also important.

There are a number of local La Leche League Groups in Michigan. La Leche League offers:
  • Phone and e-mail help from accredited Leaders
  • Mother-to-mother support meetings
  • A lending library of birth, breastfeeding, and parenting books 
  • Membership opportunities for giving back to the Group
Many Groups offer mother-to-mother support meetings where the following topics are rotated:
  1. Advantages of Breastfeeding 
  2. Baby Arrives: The Family and the Breastfed Baby
  3. Art of Breastfeeding and Avoiding Difficulties
  4. Nutrition and Weaning
​
Series Meetings are informal and facilitated by a trained La Leche League Leader. Some Groups offer other types of meetings or gatherings. La Leche League meetings are informal, and breastfeeding children are welcome. You may also contact a La Leche League Leader for breastfeeding assistance. They are available by phone or e-mail whenever you have breastfeeding questions or concerns.
