Friends of Breastfeeding works to ensure that women in Ireland achieve their desired breastfeeding experience. We network to connect women in Ireland who want to breastfeed with their local support system. We work to build communities of supportive friends, family and health professionals – “friends” of breastfeeding.

Peer Support Groups

We have breastfeeding peer support groups across the country called Mum 2 Mum groups.

To request a list of our current groups in your area contact our Mum 2 Mum Coordinator at m2m@friendsofbreastfeeding.ie or follow our facebook page where the groups running each week are posted every Sunday. 

Buddy System

Our Breastfeeding Buddy System provides one to one support for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Mothers can sign up to be paired with a Breastfeeding Buddy in her area here on our website.
