There are many reasons why a baby might not want to feed, and these can vary depending on their stage of development or health. No matter the cause, it can be very upsetting for a mum. You may even feel rejected by your baby’s behaviour. Join us as we have a look at some of the reasons for breast refusal and share ideas about how to manage these and encourage your baby back to the breast.

Come and connect with other mums and find support and friendship, have a hot cuppa while someone cuddles your baby, or let your toddler run free with the other toddlers.

We welcome all mothers, fathers, children, pregnant women and family members. You do not have to be breastfeeding to attend. We all know that babies can be unpredictable, so we understand if you are running late and welcome you all the same!

If you are feeling up to it a plate to share for morning tea is always appreciated. Cake/fruit or biscuits works well but don’t feel you have to bring anything. 

Breastfeeding can provide immunity against a range of illnesses, but if you or your child/ren have signs of illness, or you suspect that they may be ill, please consider keeping them at home.
