Jellybean most ABA groups are incredibly welcoming... All the ABA volunteers (counsellors, educators etc) are bound by a code of ethics, which means that it should be a more friendly, helpful group, because they will guide the conversations away from controversial things.

Does that make sense?

I can't speak for every group of course but I'd like to think ours is very open and friendly.

The best thing you can do is sign up for a BEC - breastfeeding education class, where you will meet other expectant parents and some of the ABA volunteers who will be part of your local group.

It's best to attend when you are somewhere in your third trimester, but before you get too big and sore to get everything out of it.

Going along to regular meetings will help immensely once bubs is born.

And of course you have all of us on here to cheer you on!!!
