Please sign the \link{http://www.expressyourselfmums.co.uk/petition.asp#sign\petition to Tony Blair}, first brought to our attention by Kiskidee on another thread.

It isn't about forcing anyone to breastfeed or "having a go" at anyone who, for whatever reason, doesn't. It is about ensuring that the proper structures are in place so that those women who want to breastfeed will get all the support they need. There seem to be so many mothers around who struggle to get breastfeeding established or who give up before they would have liked to because the support and help they wanted was simply not there.

The organisers are aiming for 10 000 signature - they have about 3500 so far. Please would you add yours?
Thanks.

done, and I must add my loacl hospital withybush is excellent for BF, they don't pressure u but they'll do their up most if u say u want to feed they'll get u to try everything without pressure etc to ensure you're fully happy with everything be it BF or formula.
