Breastfeeding babies is something I'm really passionate about.  As someone who treats new mothers and babies I'm always teaching them lots of little tricks and techniques to make their breastfeeding journey as easy and joyful as possible.  This website has all my most important bits of information - I hope it helps you too!

With the advent of the internet, these solutions are becoming easier to find. With the wealth of knowledge available though, figuring out which is the best advice for you can be tough. It is always important to remember, when reading anything about breastfeeding babies, whether it be on this site or others, in a book, or gathering advice from family, friends or professionals, that there are many different ways of handling a situation and the right answer is the the one which feels right for you.

If anything you read or have been told doesn't feel right to you then it probably isn't. The most common mistake women make is not following their gut instinct. This can lead to feelings of guilt and stress which ultimately makes your transition to motherhood even harder.

My latest favourite parenting book - My Child Won't Eat by Carlos Gonzales.  Helps you not feel so bad when you have a picky eater, breast milk really is a wonderful food.

If you've got a baby who really seems to prefer breast milk to solid food it gives you all the scientific evidence to show you that they can still be healthy.

This site is devoted to mothers experiencing problems with breastfeeding babies or pregnant women wishing to learn more about this wonderful experience. It aims to make you feel empowered to make the right decision for you and your family, so you can fully enjoy breastfeeding babies rather than feeling overly stressed by it.

The most common reason for mothers to feel stressed during the early weeks after the baby is born is a worry about how much weight their baby is gaining. Many worry about whether or not they have low milk supply (often unnecessarily). Their baby is still very sleepy and often falls asleep while breastfeeding. Find out how to get as much milk as possible into your baby here so you don't have to use any supplementary feeds.

When breastfeeding babies who are still very young the other most common problem is that they don't latch on well because they are still too young to coordinate this reflex really well yet.
