Mamas in Lockdown book and a Knitted Breast - a helpful and fun tool for teaching about breastfeeding, hand expressing and other breastfeeding related matters.

Mamas in Lockdown is an emotional and inspiring collection of personal stories from over 70 parents who were pregnant or gave birth during lockdown. Covid-19 had a huge impact on the people of Aotearoa New Zealand, especially those having a baby. From giving birth without the support of a partner or chosen midwife, to having a home birth instead of a hospital birth - the changes have been unexpected and disconcerting for many.

While supporting families during the lockdown period, it became very clear that parents needed to talk about what had happened. Many hours were spent listening to parents and Denise suggested they write their stories as a tool to help deal with the emotions of this time. Denise offered parents the opportunity to share their stores in a book, and was inundated with replies!

Parents need to tell their stories, they deserve to be heard!
