Preparing to breastfeed
Related links Preparing to breastfeed is more about reading up and research than about physical preparation. Pregnancy hormones will do all the work of getting your breasts ready for breast feeding your baby and there's no need to rub in creams, scrub your nipples or massage your breasts in advance of the birth, despite the fact that you can buy special preparations that claim to help.
