Hi Jessica,

Another suggestion, ask the girls to bring a stuffed animal (teddy bears are great!) to class.  They can practice positioning with the soft little cuddly animals in a non-threatening environment. This makes it feel less awkward when they are holding their "real" babies because they have sort of done it before.

Good luck,
Marie Ivey, BSN, RN, LCCE, CLC (hoping to be an IBCLC after this summer!)
