Breastfeeding can create a strong maternal bond
Meet Nicola, a 22 year old mum and her partner Daniel, a 25 year old dad, both from Hull.

Nicola and Daniel recently became the proud parents of baby Oliver, a beautiful baby boy. Just like other new parents in Hull, Nicola and Daniel are experiencing all the ups and downs of becoming new parents, including breastfeeding.
This section of the website is for parents like Nicola and Daniel, for before baby Oliver comes along. It is designed to help expectant parents who are committed to giving their soon to be born children the best possible start in life but need that extra bit information to help them plan and prepare to breastfeed their baby.
Over the following pages you will find everything you need to know about how to breastfeed your new born baby when he or she comes along. The site covers everything from nipple confusion to the best positions.
If we have missed anything you can use our 'Ask the midwife' feature to get the answers you need alongside a series of short videos designed to help and support you during through this new experience.
