📢 Calling UK Healthcare Professionals! We need your insight

We are currently recruiting participants to a study about how healthcare professionals understand and support women who experience infant feeding related emotional distress (sometimes described as breastfeeding grief or trauma).

If you work with families during pregnancy or in the postnatal period, we would love to hear from you.

✔ Eligible if you:

* Currently work in the United Kingdom

* Support perinatal women and/or infant feeding as part of your role (including but not limited to: midwives, health visitors, GPs, lactation consultants, infant feeding supporters).

* Aged 18 or over

* Able to complete an online survey in English

🕒 What’s involved?

A 20-25 minute anonymous survey. You can skip questions or stop at any time.

Your voice will help shape our understanding of current awareness, perceptions and practices around supporting women who face difficult infant feeding journey’s.
