Breastfeeding

We believe good health begins with breastfeeding.

This section provides information on or related to the topic of Breastfeeding. If you have any questions concerning our services, please refer to our Contact Us page.

Kaiser Permanente® and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend that babies get breast milk exclusively for the first six months of life and continue to breastfeed for at least a year.

"Contrary to popular belief, almost every woman can breastfeed successfully. This is how we have survived as a species, but we often don't get enough education and support to figure out how to do it correctly. Make sure you speak to friends and family members who have breastfed and also take advantage of the classes that we offer," says Kaiser Permanente physician assistant Lisa Marquardt. More Info
