Are you pregnant and curious about breastfeeding?

Happily bottle-feeding your growing baby and interested in meeting other parents? 

Come to one of our drop-in support groups around Boston! Our groups offer professional lactation counseling, fun playgroups for your young child, and support for anyone struggling with the ups and downs of parenting. Through a partnership with Cradles to Crayons, all Boston Breastfeeding Coalition groups also offer kid-packs, diapers and other essential items for families undergoing financial hardship.
