Breastmates Breastfeeding group


Breastmates is a group for expectant and breastfeeding mothers, their babies and children. The group meets weekly during term time (Wednesdays 11.30 - 1pm), at Henbury and Brentry Childrens' Centre. Currently about 5 mothers and their children attend each week. The group provides an opportunity for mothers to receive support, enabling them to continue breastfeeding for as long as they choose to do so, whilst meeting and socialising with others and sharing experiences. Some weeks, the group has visiting speakers, or there is discussion relating to specific topics. It has become a valued group by its members. New expectant and breastfeeding mothers are always welcome.
