As Chair of the cross party All Party Parliamentary Group on Birth Trauma, I will be taking both written & oral evidence over the next few months to contribute to this inquiry. We invite all members of the public from across the UK to send us submissions: https://t.co/9cIWFrsuug

@SBreward These toddler formulas are not only nutritionally unnecessary & unhealthy but also harmful to the environment & responsible for half the #greenhousegas emissions by these processed dairy products. Support mums not industry profits @tanya_plibersek #auspol

How is this happening?!

@talkJenny @TheDoulaElement @MidwivesRCM @Siobhan_Baillie I know a lot of doulas, and none that want to be employed.A doula started the campaign,more doulas gathered momentum then Midwives have directed the goals alongside doulas.The role of doula and midwife are not interchangeable?The campaign has clear midwifery driven goals.

“When the sling is magic (& parents might get a nap or shower whilst I'm wearing a baby!). Did you know there are people you can call to get support with your sling or carrier? @emmamason14 can support you locally for home visits & Zoom meetings. Repost Nikki @thedoulaelement

Thank you to ⁦@Siobhan_Baillie for not only raising several vital points regarding the midwifery workforce in last night’s debate but also discussing the disparity in maternal mortality rates between women from Black and Asian ethnic groups and White women ⁦@mbrrace.

Excellent news! Thank you @Siobhan_Baillie MP for securing time in Parliament to debate the experiences of #midwives working in the NHS

“NEC risk factors can include formula feeding (after exposure to cow's milk), immune system dysregulation, or any change to the microbiota.” - so why would we give preemies cow’s milk? 🤦🏻‍♀️

@advocacybaa Yes! With the fall in the use of breast milk in British neonatal units, exclusive formula feeding could account for an estimated 500 extra cases of necrotising enterocolitis each year. About 100 of these infants would die. Nobody cares…

Mum: I’ll seek private services then GP: makes phone call to baby’s father to express concern over mother’s mental health Dad - takes baby to GP Referral to gastro immediately made. Gaslighting is still a major hurdle mother’s face - not ok!

Mum: I know I’ve been a lot, but I’m still really concerned about my baby’s feeding and reflux symptoms. I’d like a referral to someone who can assess for tongue tie. GP: Your baby’s mouth is fine. I think a referral for mental health support for your may be more beneficial

2/2 @ScanComputers have told us nothing to do with them. @ASUSUK want details that are only available by turning the laptop on - impossible. And have not kept up to date with email thread meaning miscommunication throughout

1/2 Months of back and forth emails to @ASUSUK and @ScanComputers about a collection of a laptop for repair of a laptop which broke 13 months into owning it leaving a 14yr old without any of her coursework. This yoyo emailing is just not acceptable.

People formula fed since birth were found to have a 14% increased risk of hospitalisation with COVID-19 in the 1st UK wave as compared to those ever breastfed.
