About: Butler's Hill & Broomhill Children's Centre Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust - City Campus

(as the patient),

First time mum-came to the children's centre after being recommended by the health visitor. I came to the weigh-in sessions and was told about the Infant Feeding group.

Before attending I spoke to Carla at one of the weigh in sessions, who after 12 weeks of battling through breastfeeding and having mastitis three times suggested that my son was tongue- tied.

I went to city hospital to the infant feeding cafe the same week and found that this was true- once he had this sorted he was a new child! I have attended the group on a Monday ever since and I love it.

I have had support when he wouldn't take a bottle, and succeeded in getting him to take milk from another source. I really enjoy this group and use it as a social time where I can talk to friends, gain advice if I need it and know that my son is going to have a fun filled couple of hours.

Thank you Cassie. I am so pleased to hear about the support you’ve received from the Infant Feeding Café and the difference this has made to you. I’ve shared this lovely message with the Infant Feeding team, who ask me to pass on their appreciation.

Best wishes to you and your son

It is wonderful to hear that Carla was able to support you with breastfeeding and you were able to eventually get the support needed. What a lovely story to read.
