Antenatal Breastfeeding Workshop in Edinburgh

Breastfeeding is a very personal journey for each and every mum, partner and baby. It is a time of learning, communicating, cuddling, relaxing, bonding, loving and many other important things. But it can also come with a lot of challenges and for some mothers and babies it may take a bit of time for you both to get it right. Receiving the correct advice and information before your baby arrives can make all the difference to successful breastfeeding.
