Myself and my baby was seen in clinic to help us with breastfeeding. I was in a lot of pain from feeding my baby with a shallow incorrect latch and was very close to give up breastfeeding due to this. The help and guidance received from [name removed] has made a massive difference and allowed me to heal and carry on feeding my baby to this date. Without this service my breastfeeding journey would've been cut short, so I am forever grateful that this service exists and is available to new mums like myself. Thank you

The room where I was seen has not been equipped with anything that aids breastfeeding (an armchair, a pillow, things that support baby/ lay baby on etc) so it was a little bit tricky to practice the new techniques shown to me by [name removed].
