Introducing 'Laugh And Learn About Breastfeeding', a COMPREHENSIVE Breastfeeding Class, now NEW on DVD. Taught by Certified Lamaze Instructor and International Board Certified

Lactation Consultant Sheri Bayles,RN. This fun and entertaining class is now available to you. Enjoy 9 fun to watch sessions, a total of 55 minutes, all in the convenience of your own home.

Sheri believes humor is the best way to teach any subject. You will always remember it easier and over a longer period of time. This is what makes her classes so special.

In this video Sheri brought pregnant women and couples into a studio and taught them her complete Breastfeeding Class as well as everything else they needed to know about breastfeeding. This is one of the most important events of your life. After Sheri's class you will be better informed about what is happening with you and your baby.

Knowledge is power and this breastfeeding class will help you to figure out the breastfeeding process as well as empower you to make informed decisions concerning your baby. You will learn what to expect and how to ask for what you want. 

 

Following are some of the most common questions that Sheri hears every day regarding breastfeeding. She hopes you will find the answers to some of yours.

Does Breastfeeding hurt?
Some books you read say if it hurts, you’re doing it wrong. That is actually incorrect. Most women experience some discomfort, if not outright pain when they first latch a baby on. I call it an “eyes watering – toes curling experience”. However within a couple of minutes, it should become tolerable. If it is tolerable, it is correct. If it is still excruciating, relatch the baby. Most soreness dissipates within 2 weeks.

What makes you qualified?
I am a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant for the last 9 years and have been teaching Breastfeeding classes for 20 years. I am a mother of twin boys and nursed them for 9 month. If I can do it, anybody can.

Why do I need to take a Breastfeeding Class?
While Breastfeeding is a natural process, it's mostly a learned art. The more you know, the less problems you will have. After attending a class, you will be aware of the obstacles and know how to handle them.

Can I prepare for Breastfeeding before the baby comes?
The more you know beforehand, the better. If you can attend a class, or watch this video prior to your delivery, it will greatly help. You will know what to expect as well as know the obstacles that may occur.

When should I start taking classes?
It is recommended the class should end 2 – 4 weeks before the baby is due. That’s in case the baby is early you’re prepared, yet not so far in the past that the information you learned is forgotten.

In addition to attending a breastfeeding class, should I get one on video?
The big advantage is, that you can review often after you deliver especially if you are facing specific obstacles. Also, if you take a Breastfeeding Class, you will practice the positions with dolls. Breastfeeding a doll is not the same thing as Breastfeeding a live baby. On this DVD we show live demonstrations of both holds and positions. Once you are at home, seeing a real mom breastfeeding on the video, with all the different positions, will help you, to overcome the obstacles, especially if you have twin


How do I know the baby is getting enough?
There are three ways to know if the baby is getting enough.
1) After the milk comes in, the baby should have lots of wet and dirty diapers on a daily basis.
2) The baby should be calm and sleepy after a good feed (similar to how you feel after a big Thanksgiving meal).
3) The baby should be gaining weight appropriately – as checked by your pediatrician.

For partners, should they also take a breastfeeding class?
Two sets of ears are always better than one. Pregnant women have little memory and their partners can be a great support, if they know what is going on.

I already attended a breastfeeding class, why should I get one on video?
A second timer often wants a refresher to remind them of what they learned the first time. The video makes it much more convenient, without the cost of a babysitter and the time it takes to go to classes.
