- Breastfeeding SupportYoung Baby: Some mums are surprised to hear that breastfeeding isn’t always the easy, natural thing it is often promoted as.

The number of women with babies and small children who return to the workforce is increasing. More mothers are also choosing to continue to breastfeed after returning to work.
