I spent an awesome weekend in Brisbane with these amazing IBCLC’s. Mastering Advanced Lactation Skills. We learnt, laughed and shared so much in 2 days . Refreshed with so much new knowledge to share. DM if you need some breastfeeding support .

Today we acknowledge the father figures in our lives. Often the behind the scenes helpers during the newborn journey, helping us navigate motherhood.
Thank you for every cuppa when I’m nap trapped.
Thank you for sitting up with the baby and sending me to bed.
Thank you for recognising when I need a hug because my cup is empty.
Thank you for our beautiful family.
Thank you for empowering me to be the best mother I can be.
Whether this is your first Fathers’ Day as a family or 21st, I hope it’s a special one.

From, Maria x

Western Sydney is currently conducting research to better understand women’s experiences with breastfeeding with the goal of improving breastfeeding support services across NSW.

If you have had a baby in a NSW public hospital in the last five years we would like your help to improve breastfeeding support.

Please complete our online survey looking at breastfeeding support and assessment during pregnancy. It takes about 5-10 minutes to compete and is anonymous.

The survey is part of a research project that aims to improve pregnancy breastfeeding support.

Here is the link to the survey with more information:

The research project is being led by clinical midwife consultant and researcher Dr Sarah Melov from Western Sydney Local History District. If you have any questions about this project, you can email her on sarah.melov@health.nsw.gov.au
