Going to use my BF experiance to help others
I always called the national line for a counsellor rather than the local one
as that way you get routed through to someone who is there. Kinda handy when you get the answer phone of the local one and you want to talk STRAIGHT AWAY. Our HV's also do a drop in clinic every other Wedsnesday (or is once a month??) in the town centre, tho the only time I went she was late! And our local Le Leche League run sessions twice a month, tho they always clash with something else. Clare -- Clare L "Alison" o.uk wrote in message ... That's brilliant, Clare. I felt the same so now I'm training to be a Breastfeeding Counsellor. It seems a long way away right now cos the training is two years (ish) - I just wish we had proactive HVs like yours in this area then I could be helping NOW. And 'S' ... I was sad to hear that the NCT lady didn't get back to you. I think that's mean when someone has needed you so badly that they've not only plucked up the courage to phone, but have called 3 times!! I hope I make a better job of it than she did. Well done you for getting so far with no help. That's why I'm training cos when I was having a nightmare time of it I couldn't find a local helper. --Alison "M&S" wrote in message ... Good on you Clare. I was v. disappointed when I was bf - it was a nightmare (but I managed 5 mths) - I tried the NCT twice and left messages 3 times for the local lady to come and visit/call me but she never did :-( S |
