Breastfeeding Session : Crack a smile not a nipple.
This evidence based session draw from the Unicef Baby friendly guidelines, the work on Biological Nurturing of Suzanne Colson .
This incredibly informative session encourages a positive approach to breastfeeding in a calm and considered way, empowering the mother and supporter by giving a simple explanation of how to manage the early weeks with confidence.
It is intended that the new mother and partner or supporter will leave the workshop equipped with the knowledge of how to ensure an Oxytocin rich environment based on baby watching, patience, practice, laughter and love.
Week 5 explores the first few days after birth. Covering the babymoon, what your baby needs, how you may be feeling. We will also look at practical things like which nappies and slings are best.
Pub roast & birth stories.
Approximately six weeks after the last baby in the group has been born, we will arrange a get together for the whole group to socialise, tell their birth stories and of course introduce their new baby. ** Mums are usually very much in touch at this point, but this includes birth partners too **
THE BIRTH WEEKEND COVERS EVERYTHING ABOVE AND INCLUDES ALL THE BOOKLETS AND THE REUNION ROAST APPROXIMATELY 6 WEEKS AFTER THE LAST BABY HAS BEEN BORN ❤️
