Nice summary of the reassuring data on vaccination during breastfeeding in nature - vaccine components do not pass into milk, but antibodies that may offer protection to the infant do (in 100% of vaccinated women studied). nature.com/articles/d4158…

If you want guilt free biscuits that "may" help lactation... Please don't spend £17.50 I promise you that a £1 pack of chocolate covered oat biscuits will do the job of keeping the hanger at bay during a midnight feed! Eat biscuits to enjoy them, not to break your bank balance!

Lactation advocates like me are not anti formula or those who use it whatever the media might have you believe 🙄. But this is predatory and inaccurate marketing which is misleading. Not ok (thread) @tommeetippee_UK Baby Milk Action Prof Amy Brown 🕷🤱🐘 Baby Friendly UK

Saw this in a textbook this week. Tell this to someone with a 20cm areola taking up most of the width of the breast & you’ll create a confused and unhappy situation. Talking about more of a mouthful below the nipple than above may be useful but not all anatomy is the same. Obvs.

There are amazing 3rd sector organisations doing incredible work supporting breastfeeding but the NHS should be funding this support as human lactation is vital for optimal infant and maternal outcomes ABM La Leche League GB The Breastfeeding Network UK @BambisLiverpool Breastfeeding For Doctors Hearts Milk Bank
