Breastfeeding posters are a great way to promote breastfeeding and offer motivation for new moms and expectant moms. They can offer an educational component and be decorative for any office or even home environment.
Let’s dive into to some common types of breastfeeding posters to see which ones would be helpful to you!
What Are Breastfeeding Posters?
Breastfeeding posters come in a variety of sizes and designs and are meant to educate, inform, and even motivate moms who may need a more positive attitude at the moment. They can also be great accents for office decor.
Even a small poster can offer a beautiful way to show lactation support for breastfeeding moms and its natural health benefits. They serve many purposes and are a versatile way to help promote breastfeeding.
Many posters, like the ones below, can even be used as not only posters, but also as handouts in giveaway bags for moms. Some places where breastfeeding posters are useful include a hospital setting, lactation clinic, midwives’ offices, and birthing centers. Additionally, postpartum doulas, WIC offices, and of course IBCLC Lactation Consultants, Lactation Educators, and Certified Lactation Counselor offices can use them as well.
Types Of Breastfeeding Posters
There are various types of breastfeeding posters. Some display the many benefits of breastfeeding, while others show the breastfeeding positions that can be used by nursing mothers.
There’s a special bond formed between a mom and a newborn baby especially. This is when a wall poster can be used to showcase breastfeeding in such a beautiful way. Human milk posters showing how breast milk is made are also common in some doctor’s offices.
Let’s review the different types of breastfeeding posters available below.
Benefits Of Breastfeeding
Most moms know of the basic benefits that breastfeeding may offer, which include saving money and health benefits. If you can display a Breastfeeding Benefits Poster that showcases more detailed information, this can inspire a new mom to persevere even if times get tough.
If you’re looking for a poster to hang that showcases the Benefits of Breastfeeding, click the photo below to get one to print and hang up. You can even edit it in Canva to include your own benefits.
Breastfeeding Positions
Breastfeeding positions can be difficult to master at the beginning of a mom’s nursing journey. Many moms struggle with latching and positioning.
This is something I wish I had when I had my babies. A poster AND a complementary handout to reference in the early days of breastfeeding.
Sometimes it takes a mom a while to find the position that works for her and her baby. That’s why it can be helpful to have a reference handout or a poster to look at in an office setting.
The Breastfeeding Position Posters offered below are designed to complement any decor. You can match them to whatever office setting you have.
Breastfeeding Art
Breastfeeding Art Posters can serve a few purposes. Some may be anatomical posters to show human milk inside the breasts.
Others may show beautiful art to commemorate a breastfeeding experience. They could also be used as a breastfeeding milestone to hang or display.
Breastfeeding Art Posters can also be used to beautify an office space. This could be in a clinic or an office setting.
These same posters can help motivate moms too. Check out the examples below with inspiring sayings.
Who Should Use Breastfeeding Posters?
Breastfeeding posters offer knowledge, motivation, and beautiful artwork. Depending on what type you need, they can be used by new moms, breastfeeding moms, and professionals in the birthing and lactation space.
If you’re an educator looking to teach moms about nursing positions or inform them of the benefits of breastfeeding, posters are an excellent way to do this. If you’re a breastfeeding mom looking for a milestone gift for yourself, framing breastfeeding art is a great way to commemorate this special time with you and your baby.
Finally, beautiful images of babies are a great way to spruce up any waiting area or nursery. Print and frame it in your baby’s nursery or by your favorite nursing nook.
You can also gift breastfeeding artwork posters to a mom who is breastfeeding or plans to breastfeed. Breastfeeding art posters make an excellent baby shower gift or one-year birthday gift for breastfeeding moms.
If a mom is struggling with a low milk supply, a beautiful poster can be a great motivator and reminder to stick with it. This can be an optimal way to show a family’s support. The good news is this can be a relatively inexpensive way to show your support too!
How To Use Breastfeeding Posters
One of the best ways to use breastfeeding posters is to hang them on your wall in visible places around your nursing station or in your office. You can print these on canvas or print them on high-quality paper in your desired size to frame and hang on the wall.
As previously mentioned, many of these can be repurposed as smaller handouts in an 8.5×11 inch size (or A4) to be used as giveaway marketing materials. For example, the Benefits of Breastfeeding poster serves as a great reminder of why a mom would want to nurse even when the days seem long and hard. If you want to customize it in Canva, you can do that with this version.
Another example is Nursing Positions, which can be hung on the wall and also given to moms in a smaller flyer version. Moms may want to keep these handy handouts to help them through the beginning of breastfeeding.
These can also be used as gifts! Simply print and frame or print directly on canvas using your favorite print shop like Canva or Shutterfly.
The beautiful mother and baby breastfeeding art is perfect for this. These print services can print it and ship it directly to you. All you have to do is provide the PDF artwork and then hang it on your wall.
You may even opt for printing and hanging three designs, especially if you’re wanting to fill office space walls. This beautiful set is the perfect solution. These three breastfeeding artwork designs are my favorite for showcasing breastfeeding images.
