to a la leche league meeting? if so, did you decide to become a memeber? what do you like best about your group?

if you havent been to one yet, is there one in your area?

I've never been to a LLL meeting....I remember trying to contact a LLL leader when I was in desperate need of help with my newborn....but I wasn't able to get anyone .....as per my pp post though, I was VERY lucky to find a non-LLL BF support group. If LLL groups are anything like that I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone attend!

I love being able to ask questions to and share insights with other moms who have BTDT or who are FTM's looking for guidance. There's nothing like peer support to make you feel good - especially if you're having a difficult week!

No. There's only one group here and they meet on Thursday mornings at 10. If I could go, I absolutely would.

Yes, I went religiously from the time my first was 5 weeks old until my second was 16 months old. I haven't been in 7 months, but seriously for 37 months straight I never missed a monthly meeting.

I think they are wonderful. I actually am about 1/2 thru all of the requirements to become a LLL leader.

Highly recommend them to any nursing mom.

Yes, I started going when my 2nd DS was 3 months old. I loved the LLL meetings SO much. I really miss them. (We don't have one here.)
As I said in my intro, we are moving in 2 1/2 months. The town where we are going to has a few different groups. They even have a toddlers group. I can't wait!
Oh, I have to add that I met some of my very best friends through league!

Oh yeah! LLL is great! I just re-started going last month. There's a meeting coming up on Tuesday. I can't wait!

I love my local LLL group. I've been going to meetings since my older son was about 7 months old. The group meets at night, so about half of our members are working moms. I worked full-time while nursing DS #1, so it was great to have the support of other moms who knew all about working and pumping. One of our members is working on her leader accreditation and thinks that she might start a day meeting or even a toddler meeting. I'm looking forward to that.
