Breastfeeding Support Group

Are you breastfeeding? Thinking about it for your soon-to-be-born baby? Need to know more about why to do it or how to do it successfully? Then join us for the fun and friendly Doha Mums breastfeeding support group! We meet once a month at a Doha Mum's home, usually on the first Thursday morning of the month. Siblings are welcome. Decaf coffee and tea are always available.  

We are a group of moms who are doing our best to breastfeed our babies. We are not experts, though midwives and lactation consultants (in training) do join us frequently. Some of the topics we discuss are:

• Why breastfeed
• Getting started with breastfeeding
• Latching baby
• The first few hours/days/weeks of breastfeeding
• Expressing and storing breast milk
• Breastfeeding in public here in Doha
• Breastfeeding and feeding solids
• And plenty of discussions not relating to breastfeeding!

We always love to share our stories and share a good laugh. If you have questions or would like to join us, please send us an email.

THIS GROUP HAS ADJOURNED FOR THE SUMMER. WE ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR A NEW COORDINATOR - PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED!
