Low milk supply is a struggle for many mothers, but it occurs less often than we are led to believe since your baby only needs small amounts of breastmilk at each feed.
Check the graphic 👇 to see how small your baby’s tummy is over the first few weeks of life. @HaltonBFI ^jdb

💡#DYK? In 2024, HBFI distributed 4,451 FREE hand-expression kits to Halton hospitals & midwives!
Colostrum, aka “liquid gold,” is packed with nutrients & antibodies for newborns. Hand expression helps collect this precious milk & supports early breastfeeding.
