We had a great National Breastfeeding Month this August. It started by celebrating World Breastfeeding Week at Wheeler park with Live, Love, Latch! and Global Big Latch On where we had several families come out to support breastfeeding. The exciting end of the month was a generous donation from <b>North Country HealthCare</b> to help us operate the Nursing Mother's Rest Stop at the county fair. The members of the North Country HealthCare team have been long-standing advocates for successful breastfeeding in our community. They have had a lactation consultant on-staff for several years, they host La Leche League monthly meetings, and they continue to increase their numbers of staff members who are breastfeeding counselors. There is even talk of a lactation clinic in the future... wait, did I say that out loud? Its just talk at this point, but we are definitely ready to support them in this endeavor!<br />
<br />
We would like to sincerely thank <a href="http://www.northcountryhealthcare.org/" target="_blank"><b>North Country HealthCare</b></a><b> </b>for supporting our local breastfeeding coalition and our community!<br />

Even when mothers are able to get off to a good start, all too often in the weeks or months after delivery there is a sharp decline in breastfeeding rates, and practices, particularly exclusive breastfeeding. The period when mothers do not visit a healthcare facility is the time when a community support system for mothers is essential. Continued support to sustain breastfeeding can be provided in a variety of ways. Traditionally, support is provided by the family. As societies change, however, in particular with urbanization, support for mothers from a wider circle is needed, whether it is provided by trained health workers, lactation consultants, community leaders, or from friends who are also mothers, and/or from fathers/partners. </span><br style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">The Peer Counselling Program is a cost effective and highly productive way to reach a larger number of mothers more frequently. Peer Counsellors can be anyone from the community who is trained to learn to support mothers. Trained Peer Counsellors, readily available in the community become the lifeline for mothers with breastfeeding questions and issues. "The key to best breastfeeding practices is continued day-to-day support for the breastfeeding mother within her home and community."</span></span><br />
