"the word-of-mouth survival guide for SAN FRANCISCO parents"
Review added 9/14/2008
I was visited by two of their lactation consultants while in the hospital and both were useless and dismissive -- I left the hospital with a dehydrated baby who had lost more than 10 percent of her body weight. This was despite my pleas for help to learn how to get our baby to latch on. After returning home, I once again tried to see a consultant and was snubbed by the receptionist. Luckily, I went elsewhere to see a private lactation consultant, who within minutes got us on the road to breastfeeding. Now why couldn't anyone at Newborn Connections do that?
On the plus side, Newborn Connections offers a free parents group and it has a large selection of nursing bras at reasonable prices.

Small little shop, but they know what they're doing and have great lactation consultants.

Newborn Connections has a small but well-thought-out selection of maternity and nursing clothes. It's not a destination when shopping for maternity clothes, but you should check them out if you are there.

A fabulous resource for pre-natal parenting classes, lactation consultants, breastfeeding supplies and pit stop for diaper changes. Conveniently located near our Pediatrician and CPMC. Everyone is very friendly here and willing to give advice on products for new mom's who are learning the ropes of motherhood. I also used their lactation consultant services - excellent supportive and positive folks here, they have been worth 10x the fees they charge. I also stop by often to feed and change my baby in their private and comfortable baby-feeding room.
