⭐Top tip ⭐

If you’re breastfeeding an older baby or toddler, you're still allowed to have boundaries.

Breastfeeding doesn’t have to be all or nothing. It all depends what works for you and your family.

It's ok for breastfeeding to meet both of your needs ❤️

⭐Did you know? ⭐

Extended breastfeeding (also called natural term breastfeeding) simply means feeding your child beyond infancy…and it’s far more normal than people think 🙌🏻

Globally, many children breastfeed well into toddlerhood and beyond. The World Health Organisation recommends breastfeeding up to 2 years and beyond, for as long as it works for both you and your child.

Breastmilk doesn’t 'lose its goodness' over time or when children reach a certain age. It continues to provide nutrition, immune support and comfort, adapting to your child’s needs as they grow.

It’s not just about food either… it’s connection, regulation and a safe place for your little one ❤️

💖Bonding Moments 💖
Today (Sun 26th) | 10am–12pm | Hushabye Hideaway

Some of the most special moments in motherhood are the quiet ones… the feeds, the cuddles, the way your baby looks at you like you’re their whole world 💜

This session is all about celebrating that connection.

Join us for a relaxed morning at Hushabye Hands, where you can come along, enjoy some gentle play and then when you and your little one feel ready, you’ll have the opportunity to capture those intimate moments, including breastfeeding if you want, in a natural and supportive environment 💜

✨ Free to attend
✨ Stay, play and connect
✨ Photos available to purchase afterwards (no obligation)

Because these moments matter… and they deserve to be remembered 💜

*Limited walk-in spaces available (message to let us know!)

⭐ If today feels hard, this is your reminder 💜

Every cuddle, every feed and every time you respond to your baby, you are building connection.

Even if you're tired and doubting yourself, know that your baby doesn't need you to be perfect - they just need you ❤️

You are their safe place, their comfort and their whole world 💜✨

⭐Is It Normal?⭐

Is it normal if I don’t always feel that rush of love and connection?

Yes, completely! ❤️

Oxytocin isn’t a constant 'on' feeling and bonding doesn’t always look instant or magical.

Some days you might feel deeply connected.
Other days you might feel touched out, overwhelmed or just going through the motions, and that's ok. It doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong.

Connection is built over time, through lots of small, every day moments 💜 you're doing amazing!

⭐Top Tip⭐

You don’t need to do more… just lean into the small moments.

Try these things to help boost oxytocin levels:
✨ Skin to skin (not just for newborns!)
✨ Baby massage or gentle touch
✨ Slowing down feeds and removing distractions
✨ Cuddles, eye contact and chatting to your baby
✨ Babywearing for closeness on busy days

It’s not about being perfect - it's about connection in the everyday moments 💜

⭐Did You Know? ⭐

Did you know your body releases a hormone called oxytocin when you cuddle, feed, stroke or even just gaze at your baby? 😍

It’s often called the 'love hormone' because it plays a huge role in bonding and attachment.

But it doesn’t just help your baby feel safe and secure…
It helps you too!

Oxytocin can:
✨ Reduce stress and anxiety
✨ Support milk flow during breastfeeding
✨ Help you feel calmer and more connected
✨ Strengthen your bond with your baby

Those quiet moments together? They’re doing more than you think 💜
