[quote=Anonymous]Yes, take classes at the Breastfeeding Center prior to birth and, yes, find a good, highly recommended lactation consultant to meet you at the hospital at the birth as well as schedule a few home sessions. And yes, start getting used to drinking lots of water! My other advice is to have your home life set and conducive to nursing in the first six months. DH and I had lots of discussions and made plans for my responsibilities to be only the baby and self-care. I was not expected to do meals, laundry, cleaning, errands, etc. Turned out I could and did do a lot of those things after the first month or so but we definitely planned on making the baby and myself the only priority. Good luck, OP! [/quote]
