6 answeredMinnesota Breastfeeding Coalition Annual Conference 2026 took place October 8–9, 2026.
The 2026 conference was held at Wilder Center, 451 Lexington Parkway North, Saint Paul, MN 55104.
The conference was for anyone interested in breastfeeding and lactation, including physicians, midwives, nurses, lactation professionals, breastfeeding counselors, and speech-language pathologists.
It was most useful for lactation consultants, nurses, midwives and physicians in Minnesota, since the two days included a keynote by Catherine Watson Genna, IBCLC, more than a dozen other presenters, and continuing education credits. Those seeking a national research meeting or deep specialty content beyond lactation would get less, while coalition members gained a registration discount of up to $70.
Clinicians and lactation professionals at regional health conferences usually wear business casual, and layers help in an air-conditioned meeting venue in October.
The audience description focused on physicians, midwives, nurses, lactation professionals, breastfeeding counselors, and speech-language pathologists, and the conference was open to anyone interested in breastfeeding and lactation.
