This World Breastfeeding Week let’s appreciate breastfeeding mums and ensure they get the support they need.
What’s needed to support mums?
- Support for women to breastfeed anytime, anywhere, so that it is normalized and not censured in public life
- Effective maternity entitlements that do not force women to choose between their families and their work
- Trained health professionals who can provide helpful, respectful breastfeeding support
- An end to exploitative baby-milk promotions in all contexts
