Top Tips for Feeding when you’re out & about
- Practice feeding your baby in the mirror- you will be able to see that no-one can see anything!
- A blanket or scarf draped over you can help to keep you covered if you want to.
- Wear easy clothes to feed in - a vest under a top to cover your tummy but still easy access to your breast
- Make sure you feel comfortable before you start.
- Take someone with you the first time, to build your confidence.
- Plan ahead. Where might you feel most comfortable and aim to be there when your baby is hungry.
- It’s your legal right to feed your baby in public, if you chose to do so.
- Call in at any Clinic or Children’s Centre to breastfeed anytime they are open.
