Here is the round up for Days 22 and 23 of the Keep Britain Breastfeeding Scavenger Hunt and we have moved into the fourth and final week with a new theme which is - Breastfeeding Beyond the First Month.
I chose "beyond the first month" because for everyone extended breastfeeding means different things and achieving 1 month can be just as much a goal for one Mum as achieving 4 years for another. There is a lot of support that can be found in the community, health profession and family for breastfeeding a newborn, but we sometimes forget that questions can pop up at any time. Balancing breastfeeding and working or breastfeeding and a toddler and a newborn, or breastfeeding and weaning onto solids have their own challenges and in some cases are not spoken about very often. I read in a post from the Analytical Armadillo yesterday that 95% of infants receive formula before they are 6 months old which means that I am in the minority and cannot necessarily ask questions to anyone. Here are the first "clues" for todays logos, don't forget to enter the grand prize at the end of each post.
