Amy

Amy talks about establishing breastfeeding during lockdown, post natal depression, breastfeeding support, and comparing her experiences of breast and formula feeding.

“When she got weighed she’d lost about 11.5% of her birth weight. And they were like threatening like hospital and put me on a feeding plan. It was just really, really intense. I ended up pumping, breastfeeding and giving her a top of a formula as well at the beginning. And I think I’ve had more tears than actual milk in the first few days because it was just super stressful”.
