Nicola on breastfeeding with Raynaud's and the difficulty of getting a diagnosis during lockdown.
"I had Raynaud's, the cold would cause the pain. I'd been treating myself for thrush for a month and it obviously wasn't clearing because it wasn't thrush. And, because of COVID, you weren't really properly seeing a doctor so no one was giving you a proper diagnosis. It was only one morning, when I hadn't fed her, the pain came, I thought, 'Whoa, this isn't from breastfeeding.' And then I clicked, I looked it up and so I was able to get that treated."
