Campaign aims to highlight advantages of breastfeeding

FORMER Miss Ireland and first time mum Pamela Flood joined breastfeeding mothers and their babies in Dublin to launch National Breastfeeding Week.

Supported by the Health Service Executive (HSE), the campaign aims to portray breastfeeding when out and about as a normal, natural part of daily life.

Ms Flood, a former presenter of RTÉ’s Off the Rails, said breastfeeding had been great for both her and her little boy.
