Is your baby gaining weight more slowly than the health professionals would like? 💛

A quote from the book supporting my current lactation studies:

“What happens (or doesn’t happen) in the earliest hours matters the most. Indeed, the first hours after delivery hold the greatest opportunity to prevent problems, which otherwise become less remedial with time”

Breastfeeding answers - a guide for helping families by Nancy Mohrbacher, IBCLC, FILCA

Breastfeeding preparation classes equip you and your partner with the knowledge of HOW to get the best start for your breastfeeding journey and how to protect it 💛

Understanding lactation and the role of the hormones involved in the process gives you the chance to optimise this at a critical time 💛 and prevents you from making common mistakes.

Breastfeeding preparation costs less than a start up bottle feeding pack, it costs less than a weeks worth of infant formula and it could be the method by which you feed your baby for the first 6 months of their life (for free)! Worth the investment? I sure think so…

The next class will be held on Sunday 22nd March, 2-5pm at the baby room on Paris St in Exeter.

£45 per couple

3 hours face to face teaching from a registered midwife. Designed to be engaging, fun and accessible 💛

If you’d like to join us at the next class please email exeterbreastfeedingservice@gmail.com with the subject breastfeeding prep. Alternatively, head to my website and fill out a contact form from there exeterbreastfeeding.com

Look forward to journeying with you!

Hello lovely mamas! 💛

I’m afraid I won’t be back at the drop in until Tuesday 17th March 😮

Tomorrow I have a shift on Labour ward (I have been given an unusual number of Tuesday shifts in this rotation and I hope it will come to an end with the next rota!) and next week I am at the postnatal pod with for the first pod of 2026! If you’ve never heard of the postnatal pod I will post more details shortly 💛

In the mean time if you need any help/support on your breastfeeding journey please head to exeterbreastfeeding.com to see my other services 💛

Sorry I can’t be there, do head to for a delicious coffe, sunshiney welcome from Kelly and a snug warm space to feed your babe 💛

Lots of love,

💛 BREASTFEEDING PREPARATION CLASS MARCH DATE

💛 Sunday 22nd March
💛 2-5pm
💛 The Baby Room CIC, Paris Street, Exeter

What to expect?
The breastfeeding preparation class has been designed by a registered midwife to take your knowledge and understanding of the process to the next level. By having a deeper understanding of breastfeeding how it works and the common challenges (plus how to avoid them!) you will be much more likely to sustain your breastfeeding journey 💛
The class is designed to be fun and interactive to ensure optimal knowledge retention! I like to create a warm and relaxed environment so that everyone feels comfortable.

81% of women in the UK initiate breastfeeding and by 3 months only 17% of women are breastfeeding their baby.

Come along and find out your WHY, HOW and WHAT? Why breastfeed? How to make it work and keep it going! What about my partner??

I put a BIG emphasis on your partner or close postnatal support person to attend with you so that they can champion you through this next chapter and also learn all the ways they can help and support effectively but also bond with baby in their own special way 💛

If you’d like to join us next month please email exeterbreastfeedingservice@gmail.com with your due date and the subject breastfeeding preparation class 💛

Can’t wait to meet you!

Another beautiful afternoon at the breastfeeding drop in 💛

I love seeing people I’ve had the privilege to care for on their journey AND I love watching the women who are further along their breastfeeding journey holding up the other mamas and keeping them going 💛

Tomorrow (Tuesday) 10th February I’ll be 1:30pm-3pm if anyone wants to pop down and pick my brains over breastfeeding, or just come and offload 💛 Whatever you need, come on down, you’ll find a calm space, warm welcome, midwife and lovely coffee!

Not just 3 custard creams lovingly wrapped in a midwives trusty paper towel (the same paper towels that are also bloody brilliant for writing urgent notes on when someone walks into the department and drops a baby and you don’t want to forget the important timings!!) 💛

THIS little care package was sent over from one department to another by my sweet and thoughtful colleague because she had looked at my schedule today and realised the booked out double clinics I was assigned might be quite the challenge today 💛

This little act of kindness properly kept me going today. I felt seen, and I felt cared for 💛

What little acts of kindness stand out to you that loved ones have shown you while you navigate motherhood? 💛 Let’s lift everyone’s spirits on this grim, wet Monday!
