Message from Lewisham Maternity Services:
“We have had to suspend our community breastfeeding antenatal classes until further notice. We are committed to ensuring that you still get the information that will help you make informed decisions and get the support you need to feed your babies.
We have put together a written antenatal infant feeding class with links to lots of videos and information about feeding. This is what would have been discussed if you had come to a class:ย Antenatal infant feeding class [pdf] 470KB
We are also aware that some mums will find it helpful to speak to someone to get feeding support.ย There are a range of support options below:
