Quote. My own journey as a mother of three has shown me that breastfeeding success is not simply about willpower or instinct; it’s about having the right support at the right time, and being part of a community that truly understands you.

Quote. Success stories are not built in isolation; they are nurtured by those who show up consistently — whether that’s a peer supporter at a drop-in session, a midwife who listens without judgement, or a fellow mum who sends you a message at midnight saying, “You’re doing amazing.”

At BfN, we want to spotlight organisations led by Black and Brown women that share our values. First, we’re featuring The Motherhood Group, a social enterprise supporting the Black maternal experience.

The experience of one woman who chose “somewhat satisfied” with her care on the postnatal ward: “The head midwife told me I was not producing enough colostrum for the baby and encouraged me to bottle/formula feed which then subsequently affected my breastfeeding journey. I felt her bias made her assume I wouldn’t be able to breastfeed properly. However, turns out I was producing enough when I spoke to the lactation consultant the next day.” (F241, Mixed Ethnicity – Black British Caribbean and White, aged 26-35)FivexMore logo

A woman who described experiencing discriminatory behaviour from healthcare professionals: “I noticed the nurses speaking to other new mums about their feeding choices however, in my 12 hours on the ward, nobody came to speak to me about mine and whether I was confident/comfortable with breastfeeding.” FivexMore logo

there were reports of HCPs being “very accommodating”, “one call away”, and “exceptional”: “The nurses were readily available even at odd hours in the night when I needed support with the baby, especially with expressing and breastfeeding as a first-time mum.” (F904, Black British African, aged 26-35). “The care for myself and my baby was top-notch, with regular check-ups on me and baby’s vitals.” (F389, Black British African, aged 26-35) FivexMore logo

Our five-year strategy puts tackling inequalities in breastfeeding support at its heart, and we are committed to listening, understanding, and meaningfully responding to the unique needs of Black and minoritised women - recognising the subtle yet pervasive ways racism and inequality can influence care. Our commitment should be no more remarkable than a Black woman receiving the exceptional care that is her right.

If there is one key take-away from Five x More’s report it is that throughout the perinatal journey there continues to be a substantial and unacceptable gap between what gets measured and what Black women actually experience. The theme of this year’s Black Breastfeeding Week - Rooted in Breastfeeding Success, Grounded in Community Support - is a reminder that there can be no let up and no scope for complacency.

Today, we’re sharing blog post from our CEO, Catherine Hine. She reflects on the ongoing need for change in maternity and breastfeeding support for Black and Brown women.
