All times are scheduled in AEST, please adjust to suit your time zone
You’ll be welcoming your baby soon, you know you want to breastfeed and you want to be prepared.
If you’re impacted by diabetes this specific Breastfeeding Education Live session is for you. It will provide you with all the amazing information covered in the general Breastfeeding Education Live session as well as information specific to experiences of diabetes while pregnant and breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding is a learned skill, for mums and babies alike. Get the practical skills to help your baby to establish breastfeeding, as well as solutions for common challenges. Learn in a small group, covering must-have tips, techniques from our qualified breastfeeding educators and hear first-hand from a breastfeeding mum impacted by diabetes in our Q&A segment.
