πŸ₯› Niplash, flipple, let down, rooting, cluster feeding, expressing, colostrum, rugby ball, fl**ge, let down, liquid gold.....any more for any more?? You see breastfeeding a baby comes with a whole new language, without this language, our babies instinctively know what to do to survive, but this language help us to learn and understand the art of breastfeeding!

🀰 Whether you're pregnant, about to give birth or have your little one in your arms πŸ‘Ά . Let us help you to master breastfeeding. We are here for you every step of the way, even if your journey hasn't gone to plan and you've now chosen another way to feed.

πŸ‘‹ You're welcome to come, pregnant, breastfeeding, combi feeding, not quite able to feed or bottle feeding. We support all mums.

🌍 Ni**le shields, pumps, bottles, happy babies, babies that are struggling are all welcome and supported at this group. It doesn't matter where they were born, Pembury, Conquest or somewhere else, we can dove tail with the health visiting and midwifery support you receive.

🀝 So, if you'd like to be supported, meet like minded people and introduce your baby to those who may turn out just to be their best friends for life, come and join us!!

πŸ‘‹ A call for volunteers, just 5-10 mins of your time required..... πŸ‘‹

**If you've attended the group in the past or do at the moment you might be able to help us. Or, perhaps you have finished your breastfeeding journey but still follow us.**

This is how you can help....

As it can sometimes feel overwhelming or scary to come along to a breastfeeding group we are interested to hear what you thought. Whether you came once or twice or if you came regularly for a while, we'd like to understand how you felt.

Would you be willing to write us a message with your thoughts that someone could read out to share with other mums that might be in the same position. Or even better, could you send us a video that we could share. You could film it yourself or we could interview you....whichever works!

You might want to tell people how you felt before coming, what the first session was like, whether you came back, what you got out of it, or if you felt it wasn't for you. We want to hear everything, the good, the bad and the ugly!

Why? Because we care, because we want this to potentially help other mums take that brave step, because we want to always improve, after all, this is YOUR safe space to get tailored support. With your permission the messages could also help us to get funding.

No hard feelings if this isn't your thing, but as the saying goes, if you don't ask you don't get!

If this is not your thing, but still want to help, you could share this post with a friend who might be willing to help...

Breast or bottle feeding we are here for you!

Did you know that babies that are bottle fed can also struggle if they have tongue tie too, it's not just an issue with breastfeeding.

So if you're struggling to feed your baby, or just have some niggles, pop along and see us and we will give you some tips which may help. That might be a change of position, a change of teat, trying different amounts or altering the frequency of the feed.

We can also help with ni**le shields, latch issues, how to know your baby is getting enough, how often your baby should be waking for feeds, what's normal and of course helping you and your baby make friends if that's what you're after!
We can also help with much more, but there's only so much we can list before you're bored! We will always refer to you on to a healthcare professional if there's a need.

We look forward to meeting you!

It's nearly that time of week, time for the group!
We will be on hand to answer all your breastfeeding queries, help with positioning, help with getting that pain free latch and anything else you throw at us! We can also support with bottle feeding too.

We know how vulnerable you can feel when things aren't going to plan, so come along and let us listen and guide you if that's what you need.

We also have a special guest popping in - Emma from Little One Snug - Hastings Sling Library / Babywearing Consultancy who will provide you with all the support you need to carry your little one from a tiny newborn to toddler hood. So bring your slings and get them checked and adjusted so that you are really comfortable with them, rather than just making do! As always this is a free service we are offering, thanks to our wonderful sponsors.
