@Prof_AmyBrown Don’t look at her as though she’s unhinged if she cries every day for 6 weeks 😂
Wow!
#DidYouKnow that, according to a new study, producing 1 KG of formula requires between 11 and 25 kilos of Co2?! #carbonfootprint #climatechange #breastfeeding #WHA72
@1stepsnutrition @APPGIFI @BNFEvents Surely this is a joke?! Shocking decision.
Thank you @1stepsnutrition! "The claims are based on a single trial conducted by Puccio et al (2017)....sponsored by Nestlé and five of the study authors were employed in Nestlé funded centres. Nestlé also funded editorial assistance for paper preparation." #COI #Tigersfilm
New SMA Advanced infant milks contain artificial 'human milk oligosaccharides' - want to know what this means, what they are saying about the effect of these in infant formula - and what we think about the evidence they give? see firststepsnutrition.org/statements
@drtraceyc @WeMidwives @beetrooter @MidwivesRCM @sarah_fishburn @susan_bewley @BeddallHeidi Powerful words and very similar to the experiences I had as a student midwife.
Kiss away Mamas, there’s a reason they’re so cute!

"It's a regret I'm going to live with for a life time." This quote from my research will stay with me. #Breastfeeding matters to women. We need to hear their testimony - however painful - and recognise that the current system does not set women up to succeed.
The Breastfeeding Collective is a new biweekly blog series featuring real-life stories of breastfeeding Mums in The hope to inspire and educate other Mums and professionals: thebreastfeedingbox.com/2019/03/25/our… #breastfeedingsupport #community
@makesmilk @NickyMorgan01 This was my first thought when I saw the news article this morning. How can we educate about abnormality if we don’t first educate about normality?
Can’t beat a bit of #boobmerch. Our new #breastfeeding #milkinit #tshirt coming soon 🤱🏻
@emmapicks @makesmilk This is what happens when left in charge of Twitter after 2 hours sleep haha sorry for the wrong tag and glad everything is getting sorted @makesmilk 👍🏼
I can’t believe this is still happening in today’s day and age. Thank you @emmapicks for taking a stand on behalf of these Mums. Hopefully you’ll receive a satisfactory response.
Dear @BarbicanCentre, We are hearing worrying report at @AssocBfMothers of an incident yesterday where a staff member left a breastfeeding mother in tears & upset several others. We need response today that confirms staff are trained IN THE LAW. And this will never happen again.
I can really see why this would be beneficial, especially if the Mum doesn’t know any other breastfeeding Mums (which is often the case). #peersupport is so important to #successfulbreastfeeding

Really enjoyed tonight’s #Dispatches with @Quilton about the formula milk industry. I already knew a great deal from my midwifery training and own research, but it was still an insight for me and a much needed watch for all parents.
