## Posts

- [The Protective Link: Breastfeeding and Maternal Mental Health](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2026/05/04/the-protective-link-breastfeeding-and-maternal-mental-health/): The relationship between infant feeding and maternal mental health is often framed through the lens of stress and struggle, and whilst for many new mothers, the postnatal period is a time of immense transition, biological and psychological evidence shows that, when supported well, breastfeeding can improve mental health outcomes for new mothers.
- [Building Self-Efficacy in Breastfeeding: What It Is, Why It Matters, and How to Strengthen It in Practice](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/10/30/building-self-efficacy-in-breastfeeding/): Some parents meet the same challenges and keep going. Others, faced with identical hurdles, feel stuck and stop. The difference is often not anatomy or milk supply. It is self-efficacy — a parent’s belief that they can take effective action in the face of difficulty. This belief predicts what people attempt, how long they persist, and how they recover from setbacks.
- [How Long Can a Newborn Go Without Feeding After Birth?](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/10/16/how-long-can-a-newborn-go-without-feeding-after-birth/): What do UNICEF, WHO and NHS guidance really say about when newborns must be fed after birth? A clear, evidence-based look at best practice.
- [Hand Expression Vs Pump Use for Expressing in the Early Postnatal Period: What the Latest UK BFI Guidance Really Says.](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/10/16/hand-expression-vs-pump-use-for-expressing-in-the-early-postnatal-period-what-the-latest-uk-bfi-guidance-really-says/): What do the latest UK Baby Friendly Initiative and NHS guidelines say about hand expression, early pump use, and antenatal colostrum harvesting? Dee Bell, RM, IBCLC, explains the evidence, current practice and her professional view.
- [Why Breastfeeding Beyond Six Months Still Matters, and How Misinformation Harms Families](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/06/20/why-breastfeeding-beyond-six-months-still-matters-and-how-misinformation-harms-families/): Breastfeeding past six months provides vital benefits for babies and parents. Learn how misinformation can damage confidence, especially when families face feeding challenges like CMPA.
- [Understanding Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA)](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/06/06/understanding-cows-milk-protein-allergy-cmpa/): Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) is the most common food allergy in infants, yet it remains widely misunderstood. Its symptoms often mimic other typical infant issues, such as colic, reflux, or eczema, leading to both overdiagnosis and missed cases. While not usually seen in the very early weeks, CMPA can develop at any point in the first year. Our Masterclass, Understanding Cow’s Milk Allergy in Infants: Symptoms, Diagnosis & Supporting Families, explores this essential topic in depth.
- [What Is a Tongue-tie? A Practical Overview for Perinatal Professionals](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2025/05/15/what-is-a-tongue-tie-a-practical-overview-for-perinatal-professionals/): Whether you're an Infant Feeding Coach™, Midwife, Health Visitor, Doula, or Body Worker, you've likely supported families where feeding just isn’t going to plan — and often, tongue-tie is raised as a possible cause. But with so much conflicting information out there, how do we confidently support and signpost families?  Here’s a clear, practical refresher to help you better understand tongue-tie — what it is, what it isn’t, and how to recognise when a referral is appropriate.
- [Understanding Vasospasm and Raynaud’s in Breastfeeding: What You Need to Know](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2024/11/01/understanding-vasospasm-and-raynauds-in-breastfeeding-what-you-need-to-know/): For many breastfeeding mothers, the journey can be filled with unexpected challenges, one of which is vasospasm, also known as Raynaud’s phenomenon of the nipple. This condition, though not widely discussed, can be incredibly painful and is often misunderstood. Recent research highlights the importance of recognising and addressing vasospasm to support breastfeeding mothers effectively.
- [Understanding Neonatal Hypoglycaemia - A Guide for Supporting New Families](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2024/07/16/understanding-neonatal-hypoglycaemia/): Neonatal hypoglycaemia affects many at-risk infants. Guidelines balance undertreatment and overtreatment risks. Key practices include timely glucose monitoring, promoting skin-to-skin contact, and using breast milk for supplementation. Healthcare providers should avoid unnecessary interventions, focusing on evidence-based, individualised care to support newborn health and breastfeeding success.
- [The Complexities and Challenges in Breastfeeding Consultations](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2024/06/25/having-time-to-reflect/): For years, I've encountered a persistent negative comment from Anna, stating "I wouldn't recommend Dee." Despite providing thorough lactation support, including a feeding plan and follow-up materials, Anna's dissatisfaction remains a mystery. This situation highlights the complexities and challenges in breastfeeding consultations.
- ['Switch Feeding' A Game-Changer for Boosting Milk Supply and Baby Weight Gain](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/2024/06/12/switchfeeding/): Switch feeding involves alternating breasts multiple times during a feed, based on the baby's suckling behaviour and effective milk transfer. This technique can boost milk supply, increase weight gain, and extend active feeding time. It often reduces the need for 'triple feeding', making it a valuable tool for breastfeeding mothers.

- [Social Media - Friend or Foe?](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/product/social-media-friend-or-foe/): Essential Masterclass hosted by Dee Bell R.M. IBCLC with Lucy Webber IBCLC, created for professionals supporting families in early infancy.    Social media plays a powerful role in shaping how families understand breastfeeding - for better and for worse. From influencers and sponsored content, to professionals sharing evidence-based support, parents are navigating a crowded and often confusing online landscape.    This live session explores social media as both a friend and a foe in breastfeeding support. Through a thoughtful, evidence-informed lens, Lucy unpacks what families are exposed to online, who is shaping breastfeeding conversations, and how different voices - including influencers, IBCLCs, sleep trainers, and brands - can help or hinder informed decision-making.    The masterclass invites practitioners to critically appraise the messages families bring into clinic, consider how misinformation takes hold, and reflect on the emotional and practical impact this content can have on feeding confidence, expectations, and trust. You’ll leave better equipped to support families who arrive with strong beliefs shaped online, while maintaining professional boundaries and clinical clarity.    Ideal for Lactation Consultants, Midwives, Doulas, Health Visitors, and other Perinatal Professionals working with infants. Includes 3-month replay access, a short quiz, and a CPD certificate.    After signing up, make sure to check your Promotions and/or Spam folder for your confirmation email.

Low milk supply is one of the most common reasons families stop breastfeeding earlier than planned – but the causes are often misunderstood.

Designed for professionals working with infant feeding, this session covers: Understand the key physiological reasons behind low milk supply Recognise signs of insufficient glandular [&hellip;]
- [Understanding Cow’s Milk Allergy in Infants: Symptoms, Diagnosis & Supporting Families](https://theinfantfeedingacademy.co.uk/product/understanding-cows-milk-allergy-in-infants-symptoms-diagnosis-supporting-families/): Essential Masterclass hosted by Dee Bell R.M. IBCLC with Paediatric Dietitian Emma Shafqat, created for professionals working with families in early infancy.    Cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) is one of the most commonly misdiagnosed food allergies in infancy. Its symptoms often resemble other typical infant issues, leading to both overdiagnosis and missed cases. While not usually seen in the very early weeks, CMPA can develop at any point in the first year.    This session gives you evidence-based guidance on recognising and supporting CMPA, including how symptoms may present differently in breastfed versus formula-fed babies, how to approach diagnosis, and when testing is or isn’t helpful. Emma also explores the wider impact on feeding, maternal wellbeing, and bonding, as well as how to safely introduce solids in babies with suspected or confirmed CMPA. Differential diagnoses are also covered to support confident, accurate decision-making.    Ideal for Lactation Consultants, Midwives, Doulas, Health Visitors, and other Perinatal Professionals working with infants. Includes 3-month replay access, a short quiz, and a CPD certificate.
