Some parents worry about having a fussy baby at a meeting or their house being noisy when meeting online. The most important thing you can do at a LLL meeting is tend to the needs of your child. Parents are encouraged to nurse, change diapers, express milk, give a bottle, or bounce around the room with a fussy baby!
