After i had tom a lady sadly passed away after having her 4th (no related to birth) and one of her wishes along with her family was that the baby have only breast milk. Her community was great and the baby would even have feeds off different women at church. My MW did a call around and picked up milk from her ladies and that baby had nothing but EBM for 12 months...how fantastic!

Its a great community the HB one! I love it!
that is amazing! and you are right, a clear demonstration on the commitment of real care given by IMs.

LB: you will totally see (and feel ) the difference by being at home surrounded by your support team. i didnt even know i was in 'real' labour until my waters broke an hour before she was born. and even through scary transition it was so peaceful and awesome. an empowering experience to be with your family and midwives
