Many of you lovely readers have shown interest in learning about breastfeeding and pregnancy support groups and activities. I strongly urge those of you interested in finding about the diverse activities to visit BirthKuwait's website. Check out their website to find out about Prenatal Yoga classes, Breastfeeding Support groups, the Mellow Bumps support group (previously mentioned here and here) and much more.
What is BirthKuwait? Here is how they introduce themselves.
BirthKuwait
BirthKuwait is a local nonprofit birth network— a collection
of birth-related professionals—networking together and working towards providing
better support for mothers and improving maternity services in Kuwait, by
making resources accessible and advocating for evidence-based maternity care.
BirthKuwait brings together professionals and available
resources to one website, so that mothers can find the support and information
they need from conception to pregnancy and birth, and throughout their
breastfeeding and early mothering years.
We also organize public lectures and workshops geared
towards educating parents about birth, breastfeeding, and motherhood.
We help professional organizations reach out to and connect
with mothers. In addition we help facilitate training for those organizations
who want to work towards implementing the International MotherBaby Childbirth
Initiative (IMBCI)or the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI).
As an IMBCI network organization, we reserve the right to
refuse partnership to any organization that does not support motherbaby
friendly practices.
