“We are creating the culture that is increasingly medical at the expense of patient satisfaction, and we haven’t improved maternal or infant outcomes. And that is the crux of it,”

@Ella_M_Whelan How does this mean martyrdom? Why are you demonising bfing? This negative narrative is creating anti-choice environment for women when considering how to feed their babies! This article has its issues, but there is a whole heap of evidence on benefits of bf that your undermining

This is contemporary sexism - it’s subtle and masquerading as research, but it’s real. Breastfeeding means a woman does ALL the caregiving. This unscientific crap only serves to guilt trip and pressure women into thinking motherhood has to mean martyrdom. thetimes.co.uk/article/breast…

Our Student Transition Programme is just around the corner. We would like to remind teams and third year student nurses and midwives that a full day Transition Day is taking place on Monday 12th June.
