How Ollie and I spent 90% of today. Feeding and hydrating. Fan on. Bliss. And ignore Dr Hillary, you don’t need to give breastfed babies water if they’re under 6mo. I expressed some milk earlier to see what it was like and it was so watery. Lactating boobs are just amazing 🤩

Everyone plays a unique role in supporting #breastfeeding 👶🏾
Why not offer to cook food for the family, or provide childcare for any older children? This helps parents to focus on becoming a family unit. More advice:

Finally, some good news. Email from @DHSCgovuk confirms data collection for an #InfantFeeding survey in England will commence in Spring 2023. Our national infant feeding data are over a decade old so this is much needed. 🎉

As the #CostOfLiving continues to⬆️, it is even more pertinent to counter inappropriate marketing of commercial products for infants & young children by providing independent advice so parents/carers can make informed decisions on how they feed their children. 🔑messages for HCPs
