Breastfeeding helps you and your baby get off to the best start. Breastfeeding offers numerous health benefits and is one of the earliest ways for a mother and baby to bond. We support the mother-infant connection during your pregnancy, through the delivery, and continued with support during your stay at Marian Regional Medical Center’s Family Birth Center.
Once you go home, it’s important to know what to watch for that may indicate a problem for yourself or your baby.
