SARNWICK PHOTOGRAPHY LaLeche League Helps Overcome Difficulties i The McHenry and Fox Lake groups of LaLeche league will meet this month to discuss "The Art of Breastfeeding and Overcoming Difficulties." Mothering through good breastfeeding is the most natural and effective way of understanding and satisfying the needs of the baby. Breastfeeding is a simple, normal function - a natural system of supply and demand that best serves mother and baby. Mothers through the ages have happily nursed their babies successfully. Breast­ feeding has not become more complicated; only societies' attitudes toward it has created problems. It was to solve these problems that LaLeche League came into being. Poor advice, criticism, or other problems may cause a mother to decide not to breastfeed or to end the nursing relationship prematurely. At a LaLeche league meeting ex­ pectant mothers and nursing mothers can talk to other mothers who have successfully overcome problems and happily nursed their babies. The lending library is an ex­ cellent source of helpful in­ formation. Nursing babies are always welcome. The Fox Lake group will meet on Wednesday, Oct 12, at 8 p.m. The McHenry group will meet on Thursday, Oct. 13, at 8 p.m. For further information about breastfeeding or the meetings call Mrs. Gerald (Mary) Chatham In McHenry - (815) 459-7789.
