Mother to Mother Support Groups

Fancy meeting other breastfeeding Mums in your area?

Hello there!  My name is Angela and  I am a member of 'Friends of Breastfeeding'.  I am also a breastfeeding mother of a busy toddler. The following Support Groups / Breastfeeding Meet-Ups listed below are run by breastfeeding mothers. By attending one of these groups you will get to meet other breastfeeding mums and mums to-be in a relaxed setting where you can have a cuppa, offer support and share your experiences with each other. These groups also offer a fantastic opportunity for a new mum to gain confidence with nursing in public. Expectant mothers and nursing mothers of both babies and toddlers are all welcome... Enjoy!!!
