Come along for a friendly catch-up and chat, as we discuss Coping with advice and criticism. 

From the time babies are born, new parents receive advice from family members, friends, even people you meet at the shops! Knowing which advice to listen to can be confusing. 

There are many strange ideas about breastfeeding and parenting out there. Most of them come from a time when not much was known about how breastfeeding works or why it's important. You'll hear ideas about what babies 'should' do, how babies 'should' behave and what foods a mum needs to eat. Remember that mothers all around the world breastfeed their babies and they have very different diets.  

We now know a lot more about how breastfeeding works and why it is important.  

The session starts at 9:30am, but we know that sometimes you have to move at the speed of babies/toddlers, so don't worry if you're running late. We're excited to see you face-to-face, all are welcome!
