Aside from renting and selling breastpumps, the lactation consultants at Realbirth offer low-cost ($20) drop-in breastfeeding support groups for moms who are struggling with breastfeeding or who just want to meet other moms with telltale wet spots on their t-shirts! Support groups meet several times a week for two hours, please check www.realbirth.com for updated schedules. You don't have to get there on time and you don't have to stay the whole two hours! Realbirth also offers more intensive individual and small group support for moms who may need it. More information is available on their website.
