Breastfeeding Support in Lambeth and Wandsworth
Last updated 29 June 2010
The most common reasons that women give up breastfeeding are sore nipples and the feeling that there is not enough milk. These, and other problems can often be overcome by changing the position of the baby at the breast, and it can be really helpful to get some support.
