The bonding that occurs between a mother and her new baby is a natural process that is reinforced by skin-to-skin contact immediately after delivery. This not only strengthens the mother-child bond but also stabilise the baby’s heartbeat and breathing and reinforces emotional well-being for both.
During this special time, our Maternity Unit staff are fully trained to provide immediate breastfeeding support and guidance. Should you require more specialised or in-depth assistance, consultations with our Lactation Consultants can also be arranged to help you successfully navigate the early stages of motherhood.
