Winchester Hospital recognizes the health benefits associated with breastfeeding. The hospital’s Outpatient Lactation Center provides breastfeeding education and assistance for women and their families in a comfortable local setting by a registered nurse who is a certified lactation consultant (IBCLC).
The Center offers pre-natal breastfeeding classes to introduce expectant mothers to breastfeeding during their last trimester. Once the baby is born, the Center offers a weekly Nursing Mothers' Group which gives mothers the opportunity to have questions answered as well as to trade tips and socialize with other breastfeeding moms.
For more information about Winchester Hospital's Outpatient Lactation Center or to learn more about breastfeeding's benefits, please call (781) 756-4788.
