- The Breastfeeding Pages
-
This website is still being built, and we have lots of information to share, so we plan to have this page more rationally laid out in the fullness of time, with easy links to tips, articles, useful info and personal stories, and to our companion site Breastfeeding Community, for details of local breastfeeding groups in the UK.
The articles which HAVE been uploaded, may be linked on the right hand side, in the list below, or via the A - Z Topic Search, up to the right.
We are compiling a list of places to feed your baby out and about, in the UK - venues tried and tested by parents from all over the place. CLICK HERE to go to the regional listings, or HERE to add your own recommendations or warnings!
We will have a guide on 'Getting Started', a section on Breastfeeding FAQ, articles on all sorts of subjects from getting positioning and attachment right, to breastfeeding with pierced nipples, to how to adapt your regular underwired bra to a nursing bra, what to do if you're concerned you have not enough milk, and tips of boosting supply, to how to overcome any problems or pain, to the benefits of breastfeeding, and personal accounts of Mums who have breastfed in various situations.
