The LATCHING Pilot Project

Participants will be involved in group-based counseling. Sessions will be about 1 hour each and comprise up to 10 people. The sessions will be led by a trained health educator. The calls will be a chance for participants to discuss challenges with breastfeeding, problem solving skills, educational information, and discuss balanced diet topics.

Participants will receive the standard education given by their OBGYN or other healthcare provider. No additional breastfeeding, nutrition or postpartum weight loss education will be provided to participants by the investigators during pregnancy. After delivery, participants will follow normal pediatric visit schedule.
