It is good to see the discussion on handouts, and all the creative and realistic ways of making new Mums aware of the BF handouts, among the pile of leaflets they are loaded with.
    For the Mums I see, i.e. postdischarge, I put the handouts into a plastic sleeve (plastic sheet protector) as this is less likely to be mislaid.
    One of the items I now include in the plastic sheet protector is the excellent leaflet by Rebecca Glover, an IBCLC in Western Australia.  This fold-out leaflet has recently been revised.  This works in nicely with what I've just demonstrated to the mother with a balloon and with Rebecca's laminated poster, as the illustrated steps on the poster are also in the brochure.  (Contact me privately, if you want details.  No, I have no conflict of interest in mentioning this resource.)
