Tata Tuesdays: Live Chat With a Lactation Consultant Every Tuesday In August

In honor of  National Breastfeeding Month, every Tuesday in August is a Tata Tuesday! On  August 7, 14, 21 and 28 , a lactation consultant will be answering all of your breastfeeding questions from 1-3 p.m. EST on our  Breastfeeding message board. To participate in the chat, visit the Breastfeeding board on each Tuesday in August and look for our "Tata Tuesday" post. You can then ask your breastfeeding questions to the lactation consultant, who will answer between 1 and 3 p.m. The best part? Freebies are involved! Everyone who participates in the chat is automatically entered to win one of two pillows from  Boppy. Meet the lactation consultants who will be answering your questions: Want to participate in Tata Tuesdays but not a member of our community yet? Make an account here to get started!
