"They were all absolute diamonds"

About: Fife Community Services / Breast Feeding Support Service

(as a service user),

The Fife breastfeeding team supported me amazingly during the start of my breastfeeding journey. There was support on the phone, visits at my house and texts.

I could not have continued breastfeeding if it wasn’t for this crucial support I received. They supported me and also my partner in helping him understand how he could help me. Thanks to this team I was able to carry on breastfeeding.

Unfortunately I was put on medication which meant the end of my breastfeeding journey however the team still supported me with expressing and also other feeding methods.

Special mention to Colette, Bonnie and Kelly who were all absolute diamonds!
