Foundations of Infant Feeding
A 2-Part Prenatal Infant Feeding Class: June 3rd & 10th
Led by Morgan Schenkeveled, an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant and Childbirth Educator, this two-part class is designed to help you enter the postpartum period with a deeper understanding of infant feeding, realistic expectations, and practical tools to support both you and your baby.
This series focuses on helping you understand how feeding commonly unfolds in the early weeks, what is biologically normal, and how to navigate feeding with greater confidence, flexibility, and clarity. Together, we’ll explore both the science and the lived reality of feeding a newborn, so you can feel more prepared, informed, and supported as you move into this new season.
Part One: Understanding Feeding & Lactation
In our first class, we’ll explore the foundations of lactation and infant feeding physiology, including:
how milk production works
what influences supply in the early weeks
newborn feeding patterns and behaviors
what’s biologically normal in the postpartum period
common challenges families encounter
how feeding evolves over time
This class is intended to help you build a framework for understanding why feeding works the way it does, so you can feel more grounded and less overwhelmed as you navigate the transition into parenthood.
Part Two: Practical Feeding Skills & Support
In our second class, we’ll focus on the practical “how-to” of feeding and early postpartum support, including topics such as:
breastfeeding positioning and latch
bottle feeding and paced feeding techniques
pumping and milk expression
responsive feeding and regulation
navigating common early feeding concerns
creating a supportive feeding environment
This class is designed to help you feel more prepared with hands-on strategies and practical tools you can draw from once your baby arrives.
Whether you have a plan for feeding your baby, or you're entering this season with uncertainty and openness, you are welcome here.
