Bosom Buddies begin a blog!

A newborn baby has only three demands.  They are warmth in the arms of its mother, food from her breasts, and security in the knowledge of her presence.  Breastfeeding satisfies all three.  ~Grantly Dick-Read

Welcome!

This is the first official entry on the Bosom Buddies blog (not that there's been any unofficial ones... yet!) and we're a little new to this so please be gentle! Bosom Buddies is a Brighton (UK) based breastfeeding in public support group, set up by Mums for Mums. We aim to normalise breastfeeding, so that Mothers feel they can pass down the tradition of nursing and to empower them to breastfeed wherever and for however long they and their child wants! I think that's a fairly brief summary of who we are... but I'm sure I'll think of more along the way!

Our Facebook page has a wonderful community already up and running, but we felt that by having a blog you'd have more insight to who we are, what we do and what we aim to achieve. In addition to this, we wanted to create a space where we can keep an archive of all the articles/advice that interest us and for parents to use as a resource when they need to find answers or to simply know there are others out there having the same experiences! So, there you go. We're simply two Mums who are passionate about breastfeeding...and babywearing... and parenting approaches... and cake! Mustn't forget cake!
