Frequent breastfeeding is very common in the first few weeks as babies' tummies are tiny. It may feel like your baby wants to feed all day (and night!)

We have tips & advice to help get you through this, visit ➡https://t.co/RhSTgfKvix

Breastfeeding & finding it sore?

Tips to try:
· Bring baby close
· Make sure your nipple points at their nose
· When baby’s head tilts back & their mouth opens wide, it’s all systems go

Fantastic advice. How many of you have ever asked new parents about their sleep. Knowing it's normal not to sleep all night can really help new parents to cope. #sbf2023

[Parent Club Scotland @parentclubscot]

Did you know that... generally, babies do not sleep all night, every night, until they are close to a year-old 💤

We have lots of tips and advice on our website to help parents cope, visit ➡https://t.co/LIp51j09tU
