I liked how the class touched on everything that could be faced with postpartum breastfeeding education. Teaching empowering moms and supporting decisions

It was helpful to see breastfeeding being taught to someone else and explained "to a patient" rather than just being told what to tell a patient. I never was taught any breastfeeding education other than the basics.
