Its like having a set of great mates who are always on hand to help with problems give support or just have a good natter too. Being a stay at home mum can sometimes feel lonely & asking your hv for help all the time on feeding makes you feel your doing something wrong & it becomes easier to give up....not anymore everyone here is always ready to offer advice or lend an ear if you need a chat. Its my daily lifesaver.....

I can't recommend this website enough. The support from the other girls is wonderful and there is always someone to help - no matter how big or small the problem. Even if I just feel a bit fed up or lonely there is always someone to talk to and my days are alot better knowing I can come on breast buddies and speak to someone if I need to.
Can't thank you enough ladies, you're a wonderful bunch!!

I am pregnant with my 3rd child and only managed to breastfeed my last 2 for a few days - mainly down to a lack of knowledge and support.
I have joined this forum during pregnancy to get as much advice and support as possible so I can give breast feeding a proper go this time - and i've learnt so much already, and understand why I struggled so much previously.
Thankyou to you all - I know I will get through it this time with the support from all of you!

whether youre a first time breastfeeder or not we all need support from time to time, this is the best site around, full of like minded girls for serious support or just a friendly chat!

There always seems to be someone here with suggestions on how to solve problems or just make life a bit easier. Chat nights are fun too.

when i got told i was a bit wary at first, but coming on changed my aspect of what people are like, last night i got some great advice about my sleepy son and its great to hear from so many breastfeeding mums together

I am so glad I got told about this forum! I had absolutely nobody to talk about breastfeeding to at all! I seemed to be the only one breastfeeding at my local baby clinic and there are no support groups in my area!  All the girls here are so friendly and certainly know their stuff when it comes to breastfeeding! If I ever have a problem or question I know I don't have to worry as there will always be someone here to offer great advice! Thanks ladies!

I have found this forum to be an excellent source of information. All of the members are really friendly and there is always someone who can answer a question for me. Long may it continue.

If it wasnt for this forum and the support from the girls here i would have given up breastfeeding weeks ago, all the girls have helped me overcome numerous problems I've encountered along the way, the support has been great, keep up the work girls, and a huge thank you to each and everyone one of you!

Dont know if anyone watches it, but Nicola is breastfeeding her new baby, and doing well!
The storyline tonight was she was breastfeeding in the cafe, and it put someone off their dinner. So the owner asked her not to feed in there again - she said she should feed in the toilet or at home, and couldnt feed in the cafe again!!
So the family have all kicked off, and it has brought up the whole discussion of feeding in public, what the law says, and its really going into peoples feelings (the stuck up ones who disapprove, the passionate ones wanting to stick up for their rights, the hubby who is supportive but is a little worried about his wife getting her boobs out in public).
When it 1st started, i was like, WTF are they doing? but its actually highlighted it quite well lol! not sure where the story line is going, but interesting non the less!!
