Breastfeeding is a skill that you and your baby learn
Newborn babies have instincts that help them to breastfeed and mothers have instincts too – but many of us have seen more bottle-feeding than breastfeeding and feel uncertain what to do. ‘I thought I’d be able to do it – no problem – but it was hard at the beginning. I’m glad I kept on because it got a lot easier and there’s nothing like feeding a hungry baby yourself and watching her grow bigger. It’s just so satisfying.’
Breastfeeding may seem a bit awkward at first but don't worry if you don't get the hang of it straightaway. Try to be patient and ask for help if you need it. Gradually, you and your baby will both become expert at this new skill. Have a look below at all of the breastfeeding support on offer in the Glossop area.
