Although breastfeeding is completely natural, this doesn't always mean it will be easy. Many mums find that their feeding journey isn't exactly what they thought it would be. @NBHelpline gives evidence-based information and judgement-free support every day of the year, day and night! Call 0300 100 0212 - 24/7 💜 If your call isn't answered right away, please call back or leave voicemail message - which will be answered after 9:30am. Partnered with @AssocBfMothers

"For families unable to breastfeed, formula milk is an essential, non-negotiable expense. Yet, its price has soared well beyond inflation, pushing families into crisis."
