Healthy Babies, Happy Moms offers a breastfeeding class that equips expectant parents with practical know-how and support so they can begin feeding their baby with confidence. It is well suited for those in the third trimester, and partners are encouraged to participate as part of the support team. The session covers the benefits of breastfeeding, prenatal breast assessment, how lactation works, positioning and breast support, understanding suck patterns and creating a comfortable latch, and common issues that may arise for both babies and mothers. Led by an experienced lactation team in East Greenwich, the class provides a welcoming setting to ask questions, practice hands-on techniques, and prepare for the first days and weeks with a baby. Advance registration is required, enrollment is limited to keep the experience personal, and the cost is $75 per couple. The aim is to build a strong foundation so new families feel informed, supported, and ready for their breastfeeding journey.
