What is colostrum?

Colostrum is the first milk your body produces during pregnancy and in the first few days after birth. It is usually thick and yellow in colour and is sometimes called “liquid gold” because it is very concentrated and full of protective factors.

🍼 What is antenatal colostrum collection?

It means hand expressing small amounts of colostrum in the last weeks of pregnancy (usually from 36-37 weeks) and storing it to use after birth.

Why do I need to collect my colostrum before my baby is born?

✅ Key point first

It is not necessary for most pregnancies to collect colostrum before birth.

It may be recommended in certain situations or you may choose to do so.

🟡 Why might I be advised to do it?

To have milk ready if your baby needs it straight away

Both UNICEF‑aligned UK guidance and breastfeeding organisations emphasise this:

Some babies need extra feeds in the first hours/days (e.g. low blood sugar, difficulty feeding)

Having your own colostrum means:

your baby can receive your milk instead of formula

feeds can be given immediately if breastfeeding is delayed

Why that matters: colostrum is uniquely rich in antibodies and protective factors that formula cannot replicate.

⚖️ But it’s important to understand the limits

Not everyone needs to do it

“Collecting colostrum… can be useful… but is not essential to ensuring successful breastfeeding.”

Your body will naturally produce colostrum after birth whether you express before or not.

It’s usually recommended only under guidance

Typically started after 36–37 weeks and only if your pregnancy is low risk.

You should always check with your midwife/doctor first, especially if you have risk factors for preterm labour.

Droplet's mission is to encourage parents to take advantage of this critical window with the most effective breastfeeding techniques in order to prevent common challenges. What happens (or doesn't happen) in the earliest hours matters the most.

The cornerstone of successful breastfeeding is a plentiful milk supply. We will help mothers go into delivery understanding that milk removal in the first few hours, either by the baby, herself or her partner, is the key for future milk production. Simply put, it's early milk out, later milk in.

Hands are still nature's best tools. Cutting-edge research shows that hands are the most effective and comfortable way to remove milk in the first 2-3 days. In fact, frequent hand expression in the first three days, combined with electric pumping boosts production for weeks in pump-dependent mothers. Whether these droplets go to your baby, are stored, or are let out in the shower, you are safeguarding your breastfeeding experience one droplet at a time.

To begin, all you need to know is summed up in the ABC ( Attachment, Breastmilk production, Calories) before D (Delivery). Confidence begins when you realize you have all you need to feed your baby.

Got milk should not be a question.

New babies have a strong need to be close to their parents, as this helps them to feel secure and loved. When babies feel secure, they release a hormone called oxytocin. This acts like a fertiliser for their growing brain, helping them to be happy babies and more confident children and adults. Holding, smiling and talking to your baby also releases oxytocin in you, which helps you to feel calm and happy

It's normal for babies to wake up at night

# data[].attributes.body
Have you been told that babies should sleep through the night? Or that what you feed them will make a difference?

It's a nice idea but not supported by research.  Most babies will continue to wake up during the first year and it's not because they are hungry! Adults wake for all sorts of reasons and babies do too. They just need a little help sometimes getting back to sleep. It's normal.

Formula milk or solid foods aren't a miracle fix for normal baby behaviour. Most weaning foods are actually lower in calories and fat than breast or formula milk. And anyway, see the point above.

In this video, we explore how best to support new mothers with feeding.

Exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months ensures the best outcomes for babies, and mothers need support to get this off to the best start. Ongoing help with positioning, attachment and skin-to-skin contact help mothers to maintain their milk supply and avoids disruption to breastfeeding.

If mothers wish to bottle feed, the impact on milk supply should be discussed so that they can make informed choices. A sensitive, non-judgmental approach is key.

We believe that mothering through breastfeeding is the most natural and effective way of understanding and satisfying the needs of the baby. We provide mother to mother, parent to parent breastfeeding support at meet-ups across Great Britain.

Our trained breastfeeding counsellors (known as LLL Leaders), who have all breastfed their own babies, work as volunteers to provide a network of support options including local calls, a national Helpline, emails and social media. This, combined with opportunities for those at meetings to receive encouragement from their peers, other breastfeeding mothers and parents, means we can support all families at every stage of their breastfeeding relationship, in ways that work best for them.

We are committed to serving everyone - mothers, parents, families - regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, physical or mental ability, socio-economic status, political views, gender identity, sexual orientation, family structure, cultural values and beliefs.

In the last year our 234 volunteer Leaders

led face-to-face meetings in 70 groups

supported 12000 mums face-to-face

facilitated 40 Facebook groups providing information & support

took 10000 helpline calls and

answered 650 online helpforms

Read more about
Local and face-to-face support

Our warm and friendly breastfeeding counsellors (Leaders) provide mother to mother support for breastfeeding via meetings, helpforms, phonecalls and social media. We have over 230 Leaders across Great Britain and the Isle of Man: they have all breastfed their own babies and have undergone a rigorous accreditation process with La Leche League International, in breastfeeding support and counselling skills. Every single Leader, Director and Trustee of LLLGB is a volunteer. LLL Leaders offer support with the normal course of breastfeeding. Our Professional Liasion Department, and Panel of Professional Advisors enable our Leaders to investigate more complex breastfeeding issues.

La Leche League's Mission and Philosophy

Our Mission is to help mothers worldwide to breastfeed through mother-to-mother support, encouragement, information, and education, and to promote a better understanding of breastfeeding as an important element in the healthy development of the baby and mother. (From LLLI Policies and Standing Rules)

La Leche League was founded by seven mothers to support friends who wanted to breastfeed their babies in 1956. They began a grass roots organisation that continues to offer breastfeeding information, encouragement and support to mothers worldwide through a network of thousands of Leaders and Groups.

In the early decades of LLLI, the Founders and other Leaders summarised their philosophy in the following ten concepts, which we continue to use today:

Mothering through breastfeeding is the most natural and effective way of understanding and satisfying the needs of the baby.

Human milk is the natural food for babies, uniquely meeting their changing needs.

Alert and active participation by the mother in childbirth is a help in getting breastfeeding off to a good start.

Mother and baby need to be together early and often to establish a satisfying breastfeeding relationship and reliable milk production.

Breastfeeding is enhanced by the loving support of the baby's father, a co-parent, a partner, and/or close family members who value the breastfeeding relationship.

In the early years, the baby has an intense need to be with his mother which is as basic as his need for food. Read more

For the healthy, full-term baby, human milk is the only food necessary until the baby shows signs of readiness for complementary foods, about the middle of the first year after birth.

Good nutrition means eating a well-balanced and varied diet of foods in as close to their natural state as possible.

Ideally the breastfeeding relationship will continue until the child outgrows the need.

From infancy on, children need loving guidance which reflects acceptance of their capabilities and sensitivity to their feelings.

When breastfeeding isn't working

La Leche League GB is not a pressure group. Our wish is to offer families accurate information so that they can make informed decisions that feel right for themselves and their child. Breastfeeding is the optimal food for a baby, as it is uniquely made up of the exact nutrients needed for each individual baby for at least the first six months. New discoveries are still being made about the way various components of breastmilk work to aid the growth and development of babies.

However, there are times when, due to individual circumstances, mothers are unable to breastfeed or feel it is really not for them. Then what is important to a child is the love, care, warmth and bonding they experience. LLL Leaders can provide a listening ear for parents to talk about their feelings, and concerns, enabling them to discuss the situation with someone who will be completely non-judgmental. We don't offer advice as every mother/baby relationship is unique and what is right for one will not be right for another, but we offer information to empower mothers to make a decision that is right for them.

LLL accredited Leaders are mothers who have breastfed their own babies, but many of us first contacted LLL because of difficulties with feeding, or because we had previously stopped breastfeeding a baby before we wanted to. LLL Leaders know that when a mother needs a bit of help it can't wait until tomorrow. We offer mother-to-mother support via groups, phone calls and emails and have a range of online support options. While we do represent the views of breastfeeding families in any discussions on breastfeeding both in the media and via government committees, as well as organisations such as NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) and the BFLG (Baby Feeding Law Group), we will never try to persuade anyone to breastfeed.

Breastfeeding provides a baby with everything it needs, but mothers who don't breastfeed will find the way that suits them to nourish and cherish their child. The most important thing is that families feel they have been able to make an informed choice and do what is right for them in their personal situation.

The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding

Now in its 8th edition, our bestselling book The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding builds on our philosophy.
LLL knows how rewarding and challenging mothering can be.
This book was developed to address a lot of your questions about breastfeeding and mothering,
and to inspire you to be the best mother you can be.

La Leche League International

La Leche League International (LLLI) is recognised by UNICEF and the World Health Organisation (WHO) as a world expert in the field of breastfeeding : there are around 2,500 LLL groups worldwide in 70 countries and on every continent except Antarctica, they all provide mother to mother breastfeeding support.

LLLI maintains a close working relationship with the World Health Organisation: because of the influence of LLL the WHO recognises the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of the baby's life, which the NHS in the UK also adopted as best practice. LLLI are partners with WABA.
Find resources from LLLI here.

La Leche League GB

LLL began in Britain in 1971, registered as a UK charity in 1981, and became an LLLI Affiliate in 1984.

We celebrated our 45th anniversary in 2016.

LLLGB has representative Leaders sitting on non-partisan, cross party government working groups on child health; we provide evidence based responses to Government consultations; we provide accurate information to the media; we advocate for breastfeeding mothers and babies.

Many LLLGB Leaders are active in their communities helping to ensure quality breastfeeding support is available to mothers, many sit on:
Infant Feeding Strategy Groups, Breastfeeding Local Implementation Groups, Maternity Services Liaison Committees.

LLLGB was one of the lead organisations in forming an alliance of breastfeeding organisations to produce the "Breastfeeding Supplement" to the parliamentary "1001 Critical Days" initiative.

LLLGB have representation on the following: UNICEF's National Scoping Project for mother to mother support groups, UNICEF's BFI committee, and the Infant Sleep Information Source

We are a mother support partner organisation in the UK World Breastfeeding Trends Initiative , a member of Baby Feeding Law Group and a stakeholder in Best Beginnings maternal mental health project. We are represented on many NICE consultations.

LLLGB supports the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). We believe that breastfeeding is an integral part of ensuring the health and wellbeing of all children. Find out more about the UNCRC here.

(UNICEF, 2026) Do you suspect your baby has a tongue tie? 

# data[].attributes.body
What is a tongue tie? a tongue tie (also known as Ankyloglossia) occurs when the membrane under the tongue (lingual frenulum) is shortened or tight and restricts tongue mobility. The tongue tip may appear blunt or have a heart-shape appearance. The membrane may be attached at the tongue-tip, or further back. In this case the tongue may look normal.

How common is tongue tie?

The incidence of tongue tie is variable but could be as common as 1 in 10 babies. Half of these causing feeding problems. It is more common in boys then girls and tends to run in families (Hogan, Westcott, Griffiths, 2005)

Who can check my baby for a tongue tie?

If you think your baby may have a tongue‑tie, there are several healthcare professionals who can help:

🩺 Midwives & Health Visitors

Often the first point of contact

Can assess feeding, especially breastfeeding difficulties

Can refer you to a specialist service if needed.

👩‍⚕️ GP (General Practitioner)

Can examine your baby and discuss symptoms

May refer you to a tongue‑tie clinic or specialist practitioner

👅 Tongue‑Tie Practitioners

Specially trained professionals (often midwives, nurses, or doctors)

Provide detailed assessment and diagnosis

Can perform treatment (frenotomy) if appropriate.

Can I self refer?

Yes, If you have received midwifery care under Princess Alexander Hospital Midwives (Antenatally, intrapartum, Postnatally) You can contact the tongue tie clinic yourself on paht.tonguetieclinic@nhs.net
