This episode links really well with our previous episodes about combination feeding and giving top ups (linked in resources section below). In this episode Jen shares all her IBCLC wisdom with us on expressing breastmilk. How much do you know about flanges?!
We talk about:
- when to express
- the emotional and physical load of pumping
- how to pump
- 'hands on' expressing
- does the flange fit
- how much milk to expect

Amy and Jen discuss a government guidance document published in the past year which reviews the Hepatitis B selective immunisation pathway for pregnant people and newborns.
We look at this guidance from the perspective of health visitors in practice - what do you need to know? What should be happening, what actually IS happening and what do you need to do when this crops up on your caseload?
As ever we love to hear from you with any comments or thoughts by email on iamahealthvisitor@gmail.com.
