World Breastfeeding Week Australia

Breastfeeding is a safe and secure source of food and water for your baby, even in an emergency.

When preparing for severe weather events such as fires, floods and cyclones it is important to remember that you may lose access to electricity and tap water.

If your baby depends on expressed breastmilk or formula as their main source of nutrition check out our article at www.breastfeeding.asn.au/bfinfo/infant-feeding-emergencies to find out how to prepare.

You can also call our National Breastfeeding Helpline (1800686268) for more information and support from one of our trained breastfeeding counsellors.
