La Leche League International hosts both online meetings (with sat topics) and online chats (Q&A) on breastfeeding topics. Mothers can attend a "virtual" La Leche League meeting, hosted by accredited La Leche League Leaders, ask questions and share their experiences with other parents.
All mothers are welcome at these meetings, including members of "in person" LLL Groups, mothers with no other LLL support available, and mothers just wanting to see what La Leche League is like.
Online chats and meetings are held several times a week at different times. No special software is needed - just type in a nickname and click!
