Here's some science for your Saturday! Breastmilk is full of antibodies and other bioactive factors that strengthen your baby’s immune system - providing protection against infection! Want to know more about what's in your milk? Check out @Milk4TinyHumans #SaturdayScience
Cluster feeding can be tiring, especially as it gets later in the day. Our NBH @ Night team are here to provide support and information throughout the night 💙🩷💜 We welcome your feedback! @BfN_UK @AssocBfMothers #FridayFeedback #ClusterFeeding #NBHAtNight

After undergoing a C-section, there should be some attention paid to pain relief. Paracetamol and Ibuprofen form the basis for safe analgesics for breastfeeding mothers. For more information on analgesics see our factsheet here: breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/anal… #CaesareanAwarenessMonth
Constipation is common towards the end of pregnancy, and following pain relief for childbirth. For the breastfeeding mother, there are non-medicated and medicated ways to relieve the effects of constipation, and keep it at bay: breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/cons… #CaesareanAwarenessMonth
Anticoagulants help prevent blood clots - and can be a medicine used during a Caesarean birth to protect against blood clots forming in the mother. Our factsheet discusses the impact of various anticoagulants on breastfeeding: breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/anti… #CaesareanAwarenessMonth
Pain management is a big part of recovery from a C-section - and there are many analgesics options for breastfeeding mothers, but codeine should not be prescribed for them. Read more in our factsheet: breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/code… #CaesareanAwarenessMonth #CodeineAndBreastfeeding
Throughout Caesarean Awareness Month, our DiBM FB page has been sharing relevant factsheets for those who have had a c-section🤱 Today we will be sharing them through the day, starting with Caesarean section & Breastfeeding: breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/caes… #CaesareanAwarenessMonth
"One up, one down" - a way to layer clothing to make it easier to breastfeed. Although, you do not have to cover yourself when breastfeeding in public, if you feel self-conscious you may find these clothing tips helpful. breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/breastfeeding-… #TerminologyTuesday
