The Wells County Community Baby Shower was filled with moms and kids on Thursday at Timber Ridge. Women received free items to help with their growing families. A long list of service providers were present to give information about local resources.

Melissa, pictured above, a Lactation Consultant with Lutheran Health Network, provided resources about breastfeeding at the event. Though Bluffton Regional Medical Center no longer has a birthing center, there are still free lactation consultant outpatient services and groups for local residents.
