I’m doing Freebie Friday a bit early this week so you can catch a FREE presentation before it ends. It’s available until March 21, 2018. So hurry up before it’s gone. It’s titled, “Under One Sky: Intimate encounters with moms and babies by a breastfeeding consultant and nurse” by Chris Auer and you can access it here. 

The freebies don’t stop here!  iLactation is offering 5 more presentations for free. Yup you read that right – FREE! You can access all of them here.

You can use these certificates for recertification or other purposes of your choosing. Happy watching and learning. Thanks so much iLactation for the many freebies – all of us here at Galactablog are extremely grateful.

“We would love for all first-time expectant parents to view our online class.

Families who prepare for breastfeeding are much more likely to meet their breastfeeding goals.”
