Every feeding question you have — answered
You deserve to feel confident feeding your baby, whatever path you choose. One hour with a certified lactation consultant changes everything
Sound familiar?The questions keeping you up at night…
You're pregnant, you're Googling at 2am, and you still don't feel sure. That's completely normal — and it's exactly why this workshop exists.
Whether you're planning to breastfeed, thinking about bottle feeding, or haven't decided yet — you'll leave this session feeling informed, prepared, and actually confident.
Questions this workshop answers:
Will I make enough milk? How do I even know?
What if breastfeeding hurts — is that normal?
How do I know my baby is getting enough food?
Can I combine breast and bottle without confusing them?
What actually happens in those first 10 days everyone warns you about?
What if things go wrong — what do I do?
What You'll Learn
One hour. Everything you need to know.
Led by Angela Chalmers from Latch on Lanarkshire, this workshop walks you through the complete feeding journey — in plain language, with no judgement, and real practical advice you can actually use.
The first 10 days — what to truly expect from day one. Feeds, nappies, weight, cluster feeding, the emotional rollercoaster. No surprises.
How milk production works — understanding your body empowers you to protect and build your supply from the very start.
Latch, positioning & comfort — practical techniques so both you and your baby are comfortable, in whatever position works for you.
Troubleshooting common problems — sore nipples, engorgement, wind, bottle refusal. Real solutions for the challenges most parents face.
How to know feeding is going well — the signs your baby is thriving, and when it's time to ask for extra help.
All feeding choices supported — breastfeeding, bottle feeding, combination feeding. All covered. Zero judgement. Your journey, your choice.
Your Expert
Meet Angela Chalmers from Latch on Lanarkshire
Angela is a certified lactation consultant who has supported hundreds of families across Lanarkshire through the early weeks of feeding — the beautiful moments and the really hard ones.
Her approach is warm, honest, and completely non-judgmental. She meets you where you are and gives you the tools and confidence to feed your baby your way.
If you need further support after the workshop, Angela also offers one-to-one consultations at her home clinic in Chapelhall — covering breastfeeding, lactation support, and tongue-tie (Frenulotomy) assessments.

We've got you covered. Every workshop is available to join live online via Microsoft Teams — so you can get the same expert guidance from your sofa, on your lunch break, or wherever works for you. Just let us know on your booking form and we'll send you the link.

Good to Know Before You Book
Best time to attend: This workshop is ideal from 30 weeks pregnant onwards — you'll have time to take it all in before your baby arrives, without it feeling too far away to be real.
What to wear: Come as you are — just make sure you're comfortable. Think leggings, not jeans.
How long is it: The session runs from 6–7pm and is roughly one hour, though Angela may run a little over if there are questions. We'd rather give you the full picture than cut things short.
The cost: Just £6 per person. Every single penny of profit goes directly to Bear Necessities, a brilliant local Airdrie charity. So you're getting expert support and doing something good at the same time.
Just £6. One hour. Total confidence.
For less than the cost of a coffee and a cake, you'll walk away knowing exactly how to feed your baby — with expert guidance, practical answers, and the reassurance that you can do this.
