✨World Breast Feeding Week✨
These pictures deserved a place on the grid because I adored my breastfeeding journey with my daughter Elsie and doing it for over 2 years is something to be proud of!
Breastfeeding in this society is unfortunately still seen as a thing thats ‘not the norm’, there’s such lack of education and support that woman give up way before they actually want to or they don’t attempt it at all, our statistics for breastfeeding in the UK are so incredibly low 😞
My main peace of advice to expectant mothers is to educate yourself on what to really expect with breastfeeding and find out whats normal!
Search for a local lactation consultant & save their number in your phone just incase you need it!
Lastly but probably most importantly find a local support feeding group, they do exist!
