St Mary's Hospital, Manchester

After I have given birth to my baby, and the baby wont latch on or I have trouble breast feeding, will they keep me in over night and help support me?
I have heard most hospitals do.
Does anyone know if St Marys do?
I don't want to bottle feed.

Any advice please from anyone. x

I don't know about St Marys but most hospitals won't discharge you until feeding is established

They will. I had my first baby there and I had trouble breastfeeding and there was no issues with staying iver night, they were happy for me to stay and support me.
Don't worry too much though because the midwives who visit you at home after baby is born will also help and support you with breastfeeding
