Breastfeeding & postnatal course

So you really want to breastfeed your baby - but you've no idea where to start?! From getting a comfortable latch to ensuring a good milk supply... through to your options for expressing breastmilk and ways that your partner can support you. It can feel like a minefield of information!

Not only that, but you've heard about all the struggles that friends and family have had with breastfeeding. 

In the UK, 80% of women give up breastfeeding before they want to. Sometimes this is due to lack of support, sometimes it is due to myths about how breastfeeding works and what your baby needs, and sometimes it is because breastfeeding and the responsibility of a new baby can feel overwhelming.
