[quote=Anonymous]Just my 2 cents on the Breastfeeding Center on K Street:  hate to dis them, because I think they have a wonderful mission!  However, I have been disappointed by their classes (did Breastfeeding Basics; Nurturing the Newborn parts 1&2).  Not the least bit thorough, and marginally illuminating; I'm not convinced I got anything from them that I didn't also get in a book or from an experienced mother.  That said, most of the classes are free, and if you don't have to go to much trouble to squeeze it into your schedule and get there, it can't hurt...UNLESS you don't get there EARLY!!  The space they teach classes in is a glorified closet, filled to capacity with uncomfortable chairs (if ever there was a time in my life that I can't spent more than a few minutes in an uncomfortable chair, this is it!), and HOT.  So get there 15 minutes early for a comfortable seat (and don't follow my first-timer example of flying in right on time and winding up sitting on the floor for an hour and a half), and prepare to bare some skin to avoid overheating.  I imagine the 1:1 consultation is very worthwhile if you encounter trouble nursing; I will avail myself of that service if it becomes necessary.  Also, they do carry a good supply of nursing bras and tanks and advice on sizing.[/quote]
