The sun is shining, and we'd love to see you! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿคฑ

Whether you're breastfeeding right now, preparing for your baby's arrival, reflecting on your own feeding journey, or simply want to support families in our community, come and celebrate World Breastfeeding Week with us today!

Every breastfeeding journey is unique. There are moments of joy, moments of doubt, challenges, triumphs, and so many stories worth celebrating. Today is about every single one of those journeys. ๐Ÿ’œ

It's also a chance to celebrate the incredible community here in Portsmouth and to meet the amazing teams who are here to support families in reaching their breastfeeding goals, from pregnancy through the early weeks and beyond.

Together with the Infant Feeding Team, and our wonderful partner organisations, we're creating a space where families can connect, ask questions, feel supported, and know they're never alone.

๐ŸŒณ Bring your picnic.
๐Ÿ’œ Bring your family, your friends, your little one, and even someone who might just need to know this support is here.

๐Ÿšซ Myth: Breastfeeding is painful.
Breastfeeding shouldn't hurt. While it's common to feel some discomfort in the early days, pain isn't something you should just put up with.
If youโ€™re experiencing pain while breastfeeding, please seek support ๐Ÿ’œ
