1st – 7th August: 🤱 World Breastfeeding Awareness Week

World Breastfeeding Awareness Week is celebrated every year from 1st to 7th August to highlight the importance of breastfeeding for the health and wellbeing of babies, parents, and communities.

The week aims to:
Promote breastfeeding as the best start in life for babies.
Encourage support for parents in their breastfeeding journey.
Raise awareness about the health, social, and economic benefits of breastfeeding.
Empower communities and healthcare services to create supportive environments for breastfeeding.
Each year, campaigns focus on education, removing barriers, and sharing practical advice so that more parents can breastfeed successfully.

Tips for breastfeeding success:
Feed your baby on demand and look out for hunger cues.
Ensure a comfortable position for both parent and baby.

Seek support from health visitors, midwives, or local breastfeeding support groups.
Trusted NHS advice and support: https://www.nhs.uk/.../baby/feeding-your-baby/breastfeeding/

💡 Ways to boost your happiness:
• Spend time with friends and family.
• Take regular breaks outdoors and enjoy nature.
• Practice gratitude – note three things you’re thankful for each day.
• Get moving with exercise, even a short walk can lift your mood.
• Do something kind for someone else – it boosts happiness for both of you.

👶 Looking for trusted support as a parent?

Newcastle North PCN has created two FREE resources to support parents from babyhood through to school age.

🎧 Calm Your Baby – a short podcast series offering reassurance and practical advice on common concerns such as crying, reflux, feeding, sleep and settling.

📱 Little Humans – a free app providing calm, practical guidance on feeding, sleep, development, behaviour, worries and big feelings, helping parents understand what's normal, what may be happening and what might help.

These free resources are designed to give parents clear, easy-to-understand information and reassurance, while helping you recognise when further support or medical advice may be needed.

Find out more and access both resources here:
https://www.newcastlenorthpcn.nhs.uk/clinical-topics/calm-your-baby-and-little-humans-reassuring-support-for-parents/

Remember, these resources are here to support you alongside your healthcare team. If you're worried about your child's health, please contact your GP practice or seek appropriate medical advice.

🤝💛 It’s International Day of Friendship 💛🤝

Today we celebrate friendship, a powerful part of life that can support our mental and physical wellbeing. Strong social connections are linked to lower stress, better heart health, and improved mental health, while loneliness can negatively affect both body and mind.

🩺 Why friendship matters for our health?
Having supportive friends:
• Helps reduce stress and anxiety.
• Encourages healthy lifestyle habits.
• Provides emotional support during illness or life changes.
• Strengthens resilience and overall wellbeing.

💬 Tips to nurture friendship for wellbeing:
• Reach out to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while.
• Make time for face-to-face or virtual chats.
• Support friends through small acts of kindness.
• Join community or hobby groups to meet new people.

🌟 On this International Day of Friendship, take a moment to connect, appreciate, and support the people around you, your health benefits too!
